CPT members encountered a group of paramilitary members at the junction of
the Colorado and Opón rivers, who left about five minutes after CPT's
arrival. Later in the afternoon, the team returned to the area and found
that a CPT banner had been torn into pieces. The banner, created by the
delegation of North Americans in February, read "Do Justly, Love Mercy, Walk
Humbly with your God, Micah 6:8."

In March another banner was spray painted with "AUC BCB" graffiti,
signifying the presence of the Central Bolivar bloc of the United
Self-Defence Forces of Colombia, the paramilitary army.
