Bogotá, Oct 2 (EFE).- About 350 people from the Embera indigenous community continued Saturday to camp in the Bogotá National Park after they were evicted earlier this week from the house where they lived in the Vista Hermosa neighborhood of Ciudad Bolívar.This group was displaced from the Chocó region and arrived in Bogotá a year ago. They received monetary aid and subsidies from the Victims Unit and the District but when these grants ended, they decided to stay at the emblematic Bogota park.
