New documents discovered on captured FARC computers suggested that FARC terrorists donated $100,000 to the campaign of Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa.
The Miami Herald and The Real Cuba reported:

New documents a Colombian government official says were retrieved from the computer of slain guerrilla leader Raúl Reyes show FARC’s ties in Latin America may be more widespread than previously reported.

Some of the documents, obtained by The Miami Herald, indicate that a leading member of Ecuador’s constitutional assembly, charged with reshaping that country’s political landscape, may have been a longtime supporter of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia.

María Augusta Calle — also the head of Venezuela’s Telesur TV network in Ecuador and a supporter of President Hugo Chávez — let the rebels use her bank account for at least one transaction and helped promote their ideas through another news agency she directs, the Colombian offical said…

…If confirmed, Calle’s links would be yet another indication that the rebels’ tentacles have spread far across the Colombian border and reached various sectors of Ecuador.

Previously disclosed documents reportedly seized from Reyes’ computer have linked the FARC to cabinet members of Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa and suggested that the leftist rebels, who have been fighting the Colombian state for 40 years, contributed $100,000 to his presidential campaign.

The documents allege that Interior Minister Gustavo Larrea met with Reyes as recently as January and that he told the rebel leader that Correa’s government was willing to post friendlier Ecuadorean security forces along the border with Colombia, where FARC rebels are known to seek refuge while eluding the Colombian military.
