Colombia Transitional Court Charges Ex-FARC Members With Crimes Against Indigenous Communities
Colombia's Special Jurisdiction for Peace has indicted 10 former FARC members for war crimes and crimes against humanity, accusing them of torture, murder and forced displacement targeting five Indigenous groups in southeastern Colombia between 1996 and 2016. The charges mark the latest effort by the country's transitional justice system to address abuses from its half-century civil conflict, even as critics warn the court's future is threatened by budget cuts under the new far-right president.
