Manuel Marulanda may be dead

Pedro Antonio Marín, the mastermind behind the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia insurgent group, also known as FARC, is reported to have died March 26 of a heart attack. His band of revolutionaries is hardly the Rebel Alliance. FARC was born in 1964 and holds hostages and runs drugs to pay for its activities. But his organization may be dying with him with rebels willing to surrender to the Colombian government but who fear for their safety, and with a gap at the leadership level as the government makes gains against the group. "He must be in hell" said Defense Minister Juan Manuel Santos. He was believed to be 76.
