Bogotá - Following the investigation of the circumstances in which UN observers took part in celebrations at a FARC-EP Temporary Pre-Grouping Point on December 31 2016 the UN Mission in Colombia has decided to separate from service three observers present at the occasion, as well as their direct supervisor.
The UN Mission reiterates its determination to verify in full impartiality the parties' commitments towards the cease-fire, the cessation of hostilities and the laying down of arms.
