full translation available if requested

Agosto 7 de 2005
Tribunales de Irlanda decidirán extradición de tres irlandeses condenados por entrenar a las Farc

El primer ministro de Irlanda, Bertie Ahern, agregó que las autoridades colombianas no han hecho esta solicitud.

El funcionario explicó que entre Irlanda y Colombia no hay acuerdos legales en materia de extradición y señaló que “esa situación no se puede ignorar. Si las autoridades quieren hacer una petición, la tramitaremos por los cauces normales, pero es cosa de los tribunales”.

El esperado pronunciamiento del funcionario irlandés se produce un día después de que la Radiotelevisión Irlandesa (RTE) informara la llegada de los tres hombres a ese país hace unos días y de que el vicepresidente de Colombia, Francisco Santos, solicitara la extradición de los tres hombres argumentando que Irlanda debía mostrar su compromiso con la lucha contra el terrorismo internacional.

También Ahern negó, que el retorno de los prófugos a Irlanda haya sido parte de las discusiones mantenidas con el Sinn Fein (brazo político del IRA), para que la organización terrorista declarase el fin de la lucha armada hace unos días.

El primer ministro irlandés también explicó que no tenía conocimiento “de que estaban en Irlanda hasta que se difundió la noticia. Nadie nos avisó con antelación”.

Martin McAuley, Niall Connolly y Jim Monaghan fueron arrestados en agosto de 2001 en el aeropuerto de Bogotácuando se dirigían a París después de visitar la zona de distensión que tenían las Farc en las fallidas negociaciones del gobierno Pastrana con las Farc.

Los tres irlandeses, señalados de colaborar con el IRA y de entrenar a las Farc en tácticas terroristas, estuvieron detenidos en Bogotáhasta abril de 2004, cuando un juez los absolvió, aunque debían permanecer en Colombia.

Pero en diciembre pasado, el Tribunal Superior de Bogotácondenó en segunda instancia a cada uno de ellos a 17 años de prisión por enseñar a los guerrilleros de las Farc a elaborar explosivos. Ya en esa época se les había perdido el rastro en Colombia.

Ahern recordó que los llamados “tres de Colombia” han creado problemas para su gobierno y para el los Estados Unidos y el Reino Unido.

“Han creado dificultades en el proceso de paz en varias ocasiones durante los últimos años. Su vuelta también ha creado enormes dificultades. En mi opinión no ayuda al proceso de paz”, concluyó.
