9 hikers slain ne£tu
Colombian parlne
BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) —
Nine young men and women hiked
through ancient ruins, rugged peaks
and valleys and to the foothills of a
snowcapped volcano. There, in the
breathtaking Colombian Andes, they
were shot execution-style — most
with one bullet to the head.
On Feb. 7, their bodies were be
ing shipped back to their homes as
this South American nation struggled
to make sense of the latest massacre
of innocents in a land rife with war.
The decomposing bodies of the
six men and three women were
pulled out of a ravine Tuesday near
southwest Colombia’s Purace Na
tional Park. Officials would not spec
ulate on who killed the hikers or why.
But police and military authorities
noted the country’s largest guerrilla
group, the Revolutionary Armed
Forces of Colombia, is active in the
area where the killings took place.
The hikers set out on Feb. 2 by bus
from the capital, Bogota, to Huila state
for a weeklong hike through a wilder
ness area rich in pre-Columbian ar
chaeological sites and home to the
15,800-foot Purace volcano. When
relatives had not heard from the
trekkers for several days, they got
womed and called authorities.
“Everybody told me not to worry
because they were OK, but I knew in
my heart that they were not,” said
Martha Ramirez de Serrano, mother
