Kolumbien/USA. The Chiquita 13: Profiles of Banana Officials Accused of Crimes Against Humanity

(…)

The AUC was a confederation of anti-insurgent militia forces responsible for many civilian massacres, assassinations and forced displacements starting in the mid-1990s. Some members of the Colombian security forces, including senior officers, collaborated with the AUC, while many others simply turned a blind eye to its atrocities. The AUC was also a major narcotics-trafficking organization and sometimes used Chiquita’s ports and vessels to move drugs out of Colombia. (National Security Archive, USA, 21.12.2018)
