Former Yopal Mayor Jhon Jairo Torres Assassinated in Colombia
El EspectadorLO·CO·3 days ago
Colombia's Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP) has called former FARC leader Rodrigo Londoño to testify in the first trial for 'farcpolítica' — alleged political collusion between FARC and politicians — against Luis Almario, accused in the 1996 assassination of Caquetá governor Jesús Ángel González Arias and the 2000 Tubay Cote family massacre. This marks the first judicial test of the farcpolítica concept, potentially setting precedent for broader accountability. The trial's outcome will clarify the scope of JEP's mandate and could implicate other political figures.
