[B]FARC is known to hold about 20 security force members, some for more than 13 years[/B]
Four security force members held by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) rebels have been killed, Juan Carlos Pinzon, the Colombian defence minister said.
All four hostages were killed on Saturday, three with shots to the head and one with a shot to the back, Pinzon told reporters in a brief appearance.
Pinzon said the bodies were found following combat in the country's south between troops and rebels.
[B]'Cruelly murdered'[/B]
He did not name the four or take questions, but blamed the FARC and said: "They were cruelly murdered with coups de grace."
All had been held for more than 10 years after they were captured in rebel attacks.
The FARC is known to hold about 20 security force members, some for more than 13 years, and typically binds them with chains.
It would not be the first time the FARC has slain captives when under military pressure.
In June 2007, FARC fighters killed 11 regional legislators they had been holding for five years, apparently under the mistaken belief they were under attack by government forces.
Latin America's last remaining rebel army, the FARC took up arms in 1964 and has suffered a series of recent setbacks including the combat death earlier this month of its leader, Alfonso Cano.[/release]

Holy FARC
That's not nice.
Now that would just plain out suck to be in captivity for a year, more or less they've been in there for about 10 years. I think I would've gone crazy by the end of the month.
is that a tube mag next to the guncannon
Holy shit, captive for 10 years and then executed for nothing.
Shit sucks :(
FARC: "FARC YOU HOSTAGES"
That's kind of a dick move.
FARC is pretty much the most pointless organization in the world. Seriously, they have no real objective at all.
Why would they take hostages anyway.
