Carlos Pizarro

Carlos Pizarro Leongómez (6 June 1951 – 26 April 1990) was a Colombian guerrilla leader who headed the 19th of April Movement (M-19). Pizarro accepted the demobilization of M-19 that transformed the insurgents into a political party, the M-19 Democratic Alliance (Alianza Democrática M-19) (AD/M-19), but was assassinated on 26 April 1990 while running for president of Colombia. He was the brother of Hernando Pizarro Leongómez who carried out the Tacueyó Massacre in 1985, considered one of the most brutal internal purges in the history of Colombian guerrilla movements.
