A recently sentenced Colombian police general, serving 13 years in a U.S prison, could face a further 30 years following the unveiling of new evidence, reported local Columbian media, Colombia Reports.
The Colombian police general, Mauricio Santoya, was convicted of disclosing secret information to paramilitary groups.
However, representatives of victims of the general’s actions, claim that they have new evidence that links Santoyo to crimes against humanity that he has not been held accountable for.
These alleged crimes include illegal detention, unjust enrichment and forced disappearances, which under successful prosecution, could amount to another 30 years in prison.
