President Juan Manual Santos is highly critical of recent and future prisoner releases by the FARC rebel group.
"The downside is that again everything comes together as an absurd media show. As if the people and the world doesn't notice," Santos said. "Everything is prepared. This is hardly humanitarian."
Santos believes the FARC is actively trying to manipulate the media to improve their image.
FARC released one hostage Wednesday, two on Friday (hostage Armando Acuna pictured) and says it will release another two tomorrow.
