Colombia Denies UN Claims of ‘Morgue Hangar’ at Bogotá Airport
Bogotá, Colombia – A shocking claim by the United Nations Committee on Enforced Disappearances (CED) alleging the existence of a hangar filled with unidentified bodies at Bogotá’s el Dorado international Airport has been met with swift and strong denials from Colombian authorities.
The CED, concluding a visit to Colombia, stated that the hangar was likely used to store bodies whose identities remained unknown. The committee highlighted the ongoing issue of enforced disappearances in Colombia, citing forced recruitment of minors by armed groups, human trafficking, and land conflicts as contributing factors.
The CED’s statement sparked immediate controversy, with Colombia’s National Institute of forensic Medicine denying any knowledge of the hangar’s existence. El Dorado International Airport Concession Company OPAIN also issued a statement denying any awareness of the situation.
Following the allegations, the Colombian government conducted a four-hour inspection of the airport, asserting that no such “morgue-like hangar” was found. The Colombian Attorney General’s Office further confirmed that inspections of 27 hangars at the airport yielded no evidence of bodies.
Bogotá, Colombia – Colombian authorities have dismissed viral social media claims alleging the discovery of bodies hidden within hangars at El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá. The Colombian Attorney general’s Office released a statement on Tuesday confirming that a thorough inspection of 27 hangars at the airport yielded no evidence to support the disturbing rumors.
The unfounded claims, which began circulating on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok, sparked widespread concern and speculation. Images and videos purportedly showing human remains inside the hangars were shared extensively, fueling public anxiety and prompting calls for an official investigation.
“We conducted a meticulous search of all designated hangars at El Dorado International Airport,” stated a spokesperson for the Attorney General’s Office. “Our team of forensic experts found absolutely no evidence to corroborate the claims circulating online. We urge the public to rely on verified details from official sources and to refrain from spreading unsubstantiated rumors.”
The origin of the viral posts remains unclear. Authorities are currently investigating the source of the misinformation and are working to identify those responsible for disseminating the false claims.
This incident highlights the growing problem of misinformation and the ease with which false narratives can spread rapidly online. The Colombian government has emphasized the importance of media literacy and critical thinking in navigating the digital landscape.
“It is crucial for citizens to be discerning consumers of information,” said a representative from the Colombian Ministry of Information and Communications Technology. “Always verify information from multiple reliable sources before sharing it online. Spreading false information can have serious consequences and erode public trust.”
The Colombian Attorney General’s Office has reiterated its commitment to investigating and prosecuting those who spread disinformation that incites fear and panic.
The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible online behavior and the need for vigilance against the spread of misinformation.
