"The
guerillas took a teacher and were going to kill him.
They abused him and said he was a collaborator with
the paramilitaries. The community gathered in a meeting

the teacher of the children should not be killed and
that if he had done anything wrong, the governor of
the community would see that he was punished. We said,
if you kill him, you kill us all, so they gave him
up."
