Colombia's prosecution claims Uribe victim of fraud, bribery he allegedly committed
by Adriaan Alsema July 27, 2020
In an absurd change of events, Colombias prosecution on Monday claimed former President Alvaro Uribe was the victim of the fraud and bribery charges filed against him by the Supreme Court.
Prosecutor Daniel Hernandez, who is facing multiple corruption probes and at least one illegal wiretapping investigation, ignored the courts evidence Uribe ordered his fixer Diego Cadena to bribe witnesses, and claimed Uribe was the victim of his fixer.
To add to the surprise, Cadena was not sent to prison, but granted house arrest until Friday when the judge deciding on his fate will hear the victim of Uribes alleged fraud and bribery conspiracy, opposition Senator Ivan Cepeda, and the Inspector Generals Office.
. . .
The controversial prosecutors latest stunt made it all but evident the Prosecutor Generals Office is trying to prevent the Supreme Court from convicting Uribe on fraud and bribery charges.
