Colombian authorities formally charged three suspected Irish Republican Army members with training Marxist rebels and carrying false passports.
Colombia’s prosecutor’s office said Niall Terence Connolly, Martin McCauley and James Monaghan can be held in jail for 240 days while the state prepares its case.
The trio, linked by Colombian and British officials to the IRA, was detained last week. They allegedly trained Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia rebels to make bombs.
