Colombian High Commissioner for Peace Luis Carlos Restrepo Thursday arrived in the town of San José de Guaviare to coordinate an operation under the aegis of the Red Cross International Committee to pick up two hostages held by the Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces (FARC), AFP reported.

The Colombian President's Office clarified that Restrepo would not be among the delegates that are traveling to some place in the Colombian southeastern forest area near San José de Guaviare to pick up politicians Clara Rojas and Consuelo González.

According to AFP, Restrepo arrived in San José to coordinate and facilitate the actions for the delivery of the hostages.

The hostages will be delivered to the Red Cross International Committee and delegates of the Venezuelan government headed by Minister of the Interior and Justice Ramón Rodríguez Chacín, a spokesman for the Red Cross told AFP.
