Alias Bairon, alleged member of the support network of the 'Adán Izquierdo' front, fell after the attack on the Police substation in El Cerrito

In August 2026, Colombian authorities captured a man identified as 'alias Bairon' in the municipality of El Cerrito, Valle del Cauca. The arrest followed an attack on a police station by the armed group 'Adán Izquierdo.' During the operation, officers discovered a rifle loader and 14 rounds of ammunition, which are restricted to military use. The suspect attempted to bribe the officers with 1 million pesos to avoid capture, an act reported to judicial authorities. Preliminary investigations suggest he was part of a support network for the remnants of 'Adán Izquierdo,' aiding in intelligence gathering and logistics for illegal armed groups. Authorities have increased security measures in the region and urged citizens to report suspicious activities through emergency channels.
