Former FARC captive Ingrid Betancourt believes Colombia has treated her “worse than a criminal” since her 2008 rescue.
Betancourt told La Nacion: “There’s something uncomfortable in Colombia about my existence. I was treated as a criminal. Worse than a criminal because Pablo Escobar was never treated as I was.”
Betancourt is on a long book tour promoting “Even silence has an end,”a book detailing her ordeal during more than six years of captivity as a FARC hostage in the Colombia's jungles.
