The first rearmed contra leader, “Comandante Yahob,” a CIA-trained
covert operations commando who was killed by an unidentified sniper last year.
Earlier this year, Yahob’s self-proclaimed successor, a former guerrilla known
as “Pablo Negro,” was found murdered in a ditch in Honduras.
The existence of the alleged re-armed contras has never been
proven. Although various former contra leaders insist the group is real,
several of the FDC-3-80’s announced actions—the launch of a urban rebel unit
and the takeover of an embassy—have not happened.
