BOGOTÁ, Colombia — The Supreme Court on Wednesday denied a U.S. request to extradite a guerrilla captured during last year’s rescue of three American military contractors.

U.S. Embassy officials had no immediate comment.

Alexander Farfan, alias “Gafas,” or glasses, was captured July 2, when Colombian military agents posing as members of a humanitarian mission spirited to safety U.S. captives Marc Gonsalves, Tom Howes and Keith Stansell, along with French-Colombian politician Ingrid Betancourt.
