  "summary": "The Truth Recognition Chamber of the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP) has accused 10 former FARC leaders of crimes against Indigenous peoples in the Colombian Amazon and Orinoquia regions. The charges include direct harm to the Nukak Baka, Korebaju or Koreguaje, Siona or Zio Bain, Hitnu, and Jiw Indigenous peoples, as well as their territories. The decision was made amid the Colombian government's budget cuts and was announced on Oct. 12, coinciding with the Day of Ethnic and Cultural Diversity of the Colombian Nation. The JEP emphasizes the impact of the crimes on the communities' ways of life, spirituality, and relationship with the environment, and calls on the identified individuals to acknowledge their responsibility before the victims, justice system, special Indigenous jurisdiction, and the country.",
