Colombian prosecutor wants investigation based on data from seized computer

BOGOTA, Colombia (CNN) - A Colombian prosecutor called Thursday for an investigation into 12 people, including an American professor, for alleged ties to members of a leftist rebel group in Colombia.

The allegations came from material from computers seized by Colombian military forces after a raid on a Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia camp, said public prosecutor Mario Iguaran.

He said three of the five Colombians are lawmakers.
