Edgar Mauricio Plazas Niń, secretary-general of the Mayor of Apartadó, was assassinated yesterday morning. Plazas, 34, a member of the EPL (Hope, Peace and Liberty), had been in the position for 5 months. The murder occured when the Governor of Antioquia, Alvaro Uribe Velez, and the mayor of the town, Gloria Cuartas, were in Europe attempting to get international oversight for the region. Mario Aguedelo, deputy of EPL in Antioquia, accused the 'Bolivarian militias' linked to the FARC of committing the crime.
