A former local election candidate of the FARC, the political party former by demobilized rebels, was assassinated in southwest Colombia on Sunday.
The FARC said that Diego Fernando Campo was assassinated in Corinto, a town in the north of the Cauca province that has been submerged in deadly political and ethnic violence.
Campo was never a member of the guerrilla organization, but ran with the endorsement of the FARC for a seat in the regional assembly of the southwestern Nariño province.
The aspiring politician is the 170th FARC member to be assassinated during the peace process that began in late 2016, according to the political party.

Whenever FARC members have attempted to call off the war, and settle the vast differences through negociation, politics, the fascists in government, politics, military, and their death squads have seized the opportunity to start slaughtering them. It's an old, evil story. There's a real need for intervention in Colombia, and has been since at least as far back as the 1940's, in that feudal state. The only one with the power to stop them is any other fascist country.
