Uribe managed Duque's illicit campaign funds, his former PA says loud and clear

by Adriaan Alsema March 17, 2020

Former President Alvaro Uribe was managing illicit funds to buy the 2018 election of President Ivan Duque in multiple parts of Colombia, his former personal assistant told their mafia associate.

Both Duque and his political patron are being investigated for election fraud after wiretap transcripts that revealed plans to use illegal funds for vote-buying in the northern Cesar and La Guajira provinces with the help of a late drug money laundering suspect.

But these transcripts contain only part of what appears to be an elaborate conspiracy to rig the elections with the help of the mafia.

. . .

The recordings also made it clear why Daza left Colombia earlier this month; people have been killed for a lot less than explicitly saying Uribe was coordinating election rigging and moving around illicit campaign funds.
