AUTHORITIES CAPTURE REBEL COMMANDER
BOGOTA -- Colombian authorities captured a top rebel commander who was allegedly instructing a group of youths to carry out suicide attacks against President Alvaro Uribe and other government officials, the country's secret police chief said Wednesday.
Luis Hipólito Ospina, alias ''The Muslim,'' a senior member of the leftist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, was arrested Tuesday in the capital, Bogotá, said Jorge Noguera, the head of the secret police known as the DAS.
Noguera said Ospina, who reportedly speaks Arabic, German and English and has traveled extensively abroad, was trying to indoctrinate 22 youths into launching suicide attacks.
Neither the FARC nor Colombia's smaller Marxist group, the National Liberation Army, or ELN, have carried out a suicide strike in 40 years of civil war.
