Who was alias ‘Tuvia’?

Alias ​​’Tuvia’, who had a criminal record of more than 25 years, had become one of the ELN men most wanted by the authorities, due to his criminal record in areas of southern Bolívar and Bajo Cauca, Antioquia.

He became commander of the ‘Darío Ramírez Castro’ war front, after the death of Felipe Alcocer Albarino, alias ‘Pirry’. After said drop to the ranks of the guerrilla, ‘Tuvia’ was designated by the Central Command to continue with the criminal tasks of ‘Pirry’.

Apparently, he planned six attacks against the National Army in Antioquia during the years 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. For example, he is responsible for a harassment where a soldier was murdered in the township of Carrizal, municipality of Remedios.

In that same region, he ordered the attack on the ETCR Carrizal where a vehicle was damaged and the forced displacement of four teachers from the rural educational center.

Likewise, he was in charge of harassing the troops that were in charge of security in that TACR and attacking those that were in the Panama sector, leaving three soldiers wounded and a stolen machine gun.

Lastly, in January 2021, he ordered the attack with explosives on the troops in the Carrizal sector, in which two soldiers were injured.
