BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) - The ex-husband of kidnapped former presidential candidate Ingrid Betancourt demanded Thursday that Colombia's main rebel group provide proof that she and some 60 other hostages are alive.
Fabrice Delloye, a French diplomat who was married to the politician for a decade, also questioned whether a policeman who escaped more than eight years of captivity by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, was ever held with Betancourt.
The dual French-Colombian citizen was campaigning in Colombia's southern rebel stronghold in 2002 when she was kidnapped along with her campaign manager Clara Rojas. The last proof of life their families received was a video handed over by the FARC more than four years ago.
