  "summary": "Former guerrilla leader and architect of Colombia's 1991 Constitution, Antonio Navarro Wolff, passed away on Sunday, November 1, at the age of 78. Born in Pasto, Nariño, in 1948, Navarro was a sanitary engineer before entering underground politics as the second-in-command of the M-19 guerrilla movement. After suffering a devastating bomb attack in 1985, he became a vocal advocate for negotiated peace, signing the historic accord in 1990. In 1991, as Co-President of the National Constituent Assembly, he played a pivotal role in drafting the new constitution, which established a pluralist state based on human rights and social democracy. Following his political career, Navarro held various high-level executive positions, including Minister of Health, Mayor of Pasto, and Governor of Nariño.",
