From the Jungle to Paris
Wilson Bueno Largo, the 28-year-old member of the FARC guerrillas known by the nom de guerre "Isaza", spent the last 12 years in the jungle, lost an eye to war, and escaped almost two months ago with a kidnapped congressman in his arms. Today, thanks to an asylum offer from the French government, the ex-guerrilla and his girlfriend Lilia, another former member of the FARC, have traveled to Paris. They were escorted by Ingrid Betancourt, the Colombian politician who was freed this year after six years under the FARC's captivity and has just finished a tour of Latin American countries this week. With half a million dollars of reward money in his pocket, Bueno Largo has claimed, "We are awaiting a wonderful future".
