A special delegation has arrived in Colombia to pick up six rebel-held hostages, an International Red Cross spokesman says. The 17-member group landed in Florencia, a city about 380km south of Bogota, and will journey to the spot where three policemen and a soldier are to be released by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia. The Farc also has promised to release former Governor Alan Jara and former politician Sigifredo Lopez later in the week.
