Airmit conflict[eedit | eedit soorce]

Cordoba is considered a conflict zone due tae the heich amoont o paramilitaries an drog trokers active in the region. As o 2011 a nummer o airmit neo-paramilitar groups control lairge pairts o Cordoba, amang them Aguilas Negras, the Usuga Clan an Los Rastrojos.[2] Paramilitar drog gangs are thocht tae be responsible for ower 500 murthers in Cordoba in 2010, effectively makkin this region ane o the maist violent in Colombie.[3] The victims o violence are aften those who fecht tae reclaim land that haes been stolen bi the paramilitars. accordin tae reports mony victims are aften o afro-Colombie or indengenous strynd. Awtho the paramilitaries retain a firm hauld ower lairge land estates, aften in greement wi corrupt local govrenment offeecials, the guerrilla muivements FARC an ELN hae a presence here an aw.[4] The lairgest concentration o FARC guerillas are locatit in the border regions wi Antioqia an Bolívar, while thair paramilitar enemies are estimatit tae be in control o Cordoba's mair central regions. The violence in Cordoba became hivily publiscidit when twa varsity students frae Bogotá wur assassinatit bi drog runners while takkin photos on a Caribbean beach in Januar 2011,[5] awtho critics pynt oot that the killins o afro-Colombies an indigenous fowk aften go bi unnotit bi the media.[3]
