Talk:Death of Luis Andres Colmenares

Contested deletion
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it's the real story of a murdered college student in Bogota, Colombia. There is a version of this story in Spanish on Wikipedia, but there is not one in English. This page, should it be allowed to continue, services a great need by keeping English-speaking Latinos and other interested parties abreast of a developing and hugely important situation.

The case in Colombia has already revealed attempts by various arms of law enforcement to dismiss the charges against the accused by measures of bribery, litigation tactics and other means illegal and legal. Deleting this page does not serve the public nor is it warranted on its own terms.--Vivaemptiness (talk) 18:22, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

 * I've removed the CSD tag. I'm not sure if the WP:BLP1E applies, the case received significant coverage in multiple Colombian media from 2010 to 2012,, which suggests that the circumstances of the case might be rather unusual. Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 09:20, 9 March 2012 (UTC)


 * This article shouldn't be removed, this case has received HUGE exposure in Colombian media, high ranking government officials are being investigated for corruption, for being involved on modifying evidence, trying to close the case earlier and trying to change the prosecutor . Also there has been a huge response and rejection from the Colombian People around the world, several manifestations took place around the country, people claimed for justice and the true to be revealed for Luis Andres murder --Vivaemptiness (talk) 18:22, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Because most of the sources are in Spanish the update of this article is taking longer than usual. --Vivaemptiness (talk) 18:24, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
