VOICED: Justicia indigena para las FARC

The indigenous community in southern Colombia, tired of the crossfire between FARC and the army, has decided to administer justice independently. They have captured guerrilla members and confiscated their weapons, asserting their right to judge them according to their laws. The community has its own police and a committee of local governors acting as judges. During a trial, tensions arise, but the accused are found guilty and sentenced to 30 lashes. The community is aware of potential reprisals from FARC but remains committed to their justice system.
