Colombian congressman Diógenes Quintero was among those on board, according to the party that had nominated him for the House of Representatives. Quintero’s communications team said it lost contact with him and his assistant after the plane disappeared. The last registered location on their phones was Camilo Daza airport in Cúcuta “before takeoff,” his team said. The plane, operated by state airline Satena, lost contact with air traffic control shortly after takeoff, Transportation Minister María Fernanda Rojas said earlier. Authorities found the crashed plane in a rural area of La Playa de Belén after a search involving multiple aircraft, officials said.
