Presidential candidate Abelardo de la Espriella's campaign vehicle was set on fire by armed men on October 14th, 2025, in Arauca, Colombia, while his team was collecting signatures. De la Espriella attributed the attack to guerrilla groups operating under the government's "total peace" policy, citing concerns over political violence and opposition safety. The incident occurred during a signature collection drive in the eastern region of the country. The attack has amplified concerns regarding the security of political opposition and the effectiveness of the current peace initiatives. Separately, Elon Musk has reportedly offered a legal team to a Brazilian individual targeted by Justice Alexandre de Moraes. Details regarding the specific individual and the nature of the Moraes investigation were not immediately available in the provided sources.
