Final prosecution witnesses to testify in 'Colombia Three' trial

Prosecutors in the trial of three men accused of training rebels in Colombia are set to present more witnesses this week to try to prove the men trained rebels in the jungles of southern Colombia.

The police officer who arrested the three men in August 2001 and a Colombian anti-terrorist expert who is expected to provide testimony comparing IRA methods with those used by Colombia’s primary rebel group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, are among the witnesses scheduled to testify in the phase of the trial which begins today.
