MOCOA, Colombia, Dec 2 (IPS) - Aleida Cuarán, 36, was sentenced to eight years in a Colombian prison on Jan. 24, 2001.
Cuarán is from Mocoa, the capital of the southern Colombian department (province) of Putumayo, an oil-rich zone that is one of the poorest parts of the country, and one of the hardest-hit by the armed conflict and drug trafficking.
In Mocoa, 150 children of 80 female prisoners are, like her daughters, going from home to home, trading work for a roof over their heads, meals, and in some cases, the possibility of attending school.
According to an agreement of 27 December, 1902, between the Government and the Holy See, this prefecture comprises almost the entire Colombian province of Mocoa; it formerly belonged to the extensive Diocese of Pasto.
The decree of erection is dated 20 December, 1904, and the Capuchins of the Spanish province of Cataluna are entrusted with the evangelization of the aborigines, who as yet are in a very low state of civilization, some being even addicted to cannibalism.
In 1906 there were two permanent mission-stations at Mocoa and Sibundoy, with 10 fathers and 3 lay brothers in charge of 14 chapels.
