Bogotá, September 17 (RHC-teleSUR) -- In anticipation of its transition to a legal political group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia are set to dissolve its military high command during the 10th National Guerrilla Conference, sources close to the rebel group told Proceso magazine.

The high command, known as the Central General Staff and composed of the leading commanders from each of the guerrilla army's blocs, is set to becoming the basis of a provisional leadership body for a legal political party.

The 10th National Guerrilla Conference began Saturday in an isolated region in the municipality of San Vicente del Caguan, approximately 300 kilometers from Bogota.

Approximately 200 delegates, including some guerrillas who were granted a temporary release from prison, will analyze the contents of the final peace agreement reached with the government of Juan Manuel Santos.
