Colombian soldiers escorted Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) members Gerardo Antonio Aguilar Ramirez (2nd L) and Alexander Farfan (3rd R) before a news conference in Bogota July 3, 2008. Antonio Aguilar and Farfan were captured during the military rescue of Ingrid Betancourt and 14 other hostages the two rebel officers were guarding last week. Colombian FARC rebels were betrayed by their own men in last week's rescue of the hostages, the guerrillas said in a statement signed by FARC's secretariat and issued on the Bolivarian Press Agency website, on July 11, 2008.
