BOGOTÁ, Colombia — A senior rebel leader ruled out the unilateral release of an ailing French-Colombian hostage, casting doubt on the mission of French diplomats and doctors who flew to Colombia on Thursday to save her life.
Rodrigo Granda, the rebels’ foreign relations chief, did not mention the French plane sitting on the tarmac in Bogotá but suggested the French had no deal with the rebels for the release of Ingrid Betancourt, 46, who was kidnapped while running for president of Colombia six years ago.
