Alias Jhon 40: le chef de la dissidence qui aurait ordonné le meurtre de Miguel Uribe serait au Venezuela

Alias Jhon 40, believed to be the leader of the dissident group known as the Second Marquetalia, is currently in Venezuela, according to military intelligence. This information emerged amid a renewed offensive against the group, which has been linked to the murder of former senator and presidential candidate Miguel Uribe more than a year ago. The Colombian military has confirmed that Géner García Molina, who goes by the alias Jhon 40, is using Venezuela as a refuge to evade ongoing operations targeting his organization. The military units operating in regions such as Vichada, Guainía, Guaviare, Caquetá, Meta, Cauca, and Antioquia have raised concerns over the possible escape of Jhon 40 into Venezuelan territory. These areas are under the influence of the Second Marquetalia, a splinter faction of the former Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). García Molina was once a commander within the FARC and did not participate in the peace process led by President Juan Manuel Santos. He is now one of the key figures alongside Luciano Marín, known as Ivan Marín, in the Second Marquetalia, which has grown stronger through violent means including assassinations and attacks. Miguel Uribe was killed nearly a year ago, and investigations have pointed to the Second Marquetalia as the likely perpetrators. In July of last year, Semana revealed that the Attorney General’s Office had identified Jhon 40 and José Aldinever Sierra Sabogal, known as Zarco Aldinever, as primary suspects behind the attack. The attorney general, Luz Adriana Camargo, disclosed that the investigation uncovered a trail leading back to the so-called "Caquetá route," which reportedly guided the operation to alias El Costeño, responsible for orchestrating the killing. The disbanding of the FARC and the subsequent rise of its factions have created a power vacuum that these groups have exploited. Since the assassination of Miguel Uribe and the arrival of the new government, the military has intensified efforts to dismantle the Second Marquetalia. This group is implicated in numerous illegal activities, including extortion, drug trafficking, and illegal mining. The Colombian armed forces are working to determine whether Jhon 40 is still alive and active after the large-scale campaign launched by President Gustavo Petro De La Espriella against these armed groups. The military continues to investigate the potential presence of Jhon 40 in Venezuela and assess the effectiveness of their operations against the Second Marquetalia. The region remains a hotspot for criminal activity, with the disaffected remnants of the FARC continuing to pose a threat to public safety and national security. As the situation evolves, the focus remains on tracking down those responsible for past crimes and dismantling the networks that continue to operate in the shadows.
