. . . "\"False positives\" scandal"@en . . "The \"false positives\" scandal (Esc\u00E1ndalo de los falsos positivos in Spanish) was a series of murders in Colombia, part of the ongoing armed conflict in that country between the government and guerrilla forces of the FARC and the ELN. Members of the military had poor or mentally impaired civilians lured to remote parts of the country with offers of work, killed them, and presented them to authorities as guerrilleros killed in battle, in an effort to inflate body counts and receive promotions or other benefits. As of June 2012, a total of 3,350 such cases have been investigated in all parts of the country and verdicts have been reached in 170 cases. Human rights groups have charged that the judicial cases progressed too slowly. The name of the scandal refers to the technical term of \"false positive\" which describes a test falsely detecting a condition that is not present."@en . . . . .
