   Our Colombian partner, Cerosetenta, was ordered by a judge to remove a joint investigation we published with them about a political candidate and his alleged links to members of an international neo-Nazi group in Bogota. Cerosetenta will now challenge that decision. https://cerosetenta.uniandes.edu.co/cerosetenta-acudira-a-la-corte-constitucional-tras-fallo-de-juez-que-le-ordena-eliminar-investigacion-sobre-presuntos-vinculos-de-candidato-con-una-red-neonazi

     The investigation was published on May 11 and used open sources and material from the former candidate himself to – among other things – demonstrate apparent interactions with a Bogota-based neo-Nazi group, the local branch of the international Active Club movement.
