Falsos positivos en Colombia: ¿Qué son? ¿Cómo luchan sus familiares? ¿Qué hizo el Gobierno?

Carmenza Gomez, member of the Mothers of False Positives (Mafapo) civil organization, poses for a picture in Bogota, on February 7, 2020. - During the nine-year reconstruction of her son's extrajudicial execution Carmenza Gomez uncovered a "rotten pot" in the Colombian army and now demands justice and the truth about his crime. Without imagining it, Carmenza began to unveil the biggest scandal in the history of the Colombian military: the "false positives", executions of civilians at the hands of the military who presented them as combat casualties to swell the results of a conflict that has bled the country to death for almost sixty years.

Fueron nueve años reconstruyendo la ejecución extrajudicial de su hijo. En la búsqueda de justicia, Carmenza Gómez destapó una "olla podrida" en el ejército de Colombia y ahora exige la verdad completa sobre el crimen.

Víctor Gómez trabajaba como guardia en Bogotá. El 23 de agosto de 2008 desapareció junto con Diego Tamayo y Jader Palacio. Al mes siguiente sus cuerpos fueron hallados muy lejos de Soacha, la localidad donde vivían al sur de Bogotá.

Con la falsa promesa de un mejor empleo unos desconocidos, se supo después, los llevaron al departamento de Norte de Santander, limítrofe con Venezuela.
