Bogota Mayor orders investigation into his son

The Mayor Bogota has asked the Office of the Prosecutor-General to investigate actions of his son’s alleged involvement in contract irregularities.
Sources close to the Mayor insist that his intention is to dispel any doubts about the actions of his son, Nicholas Petro, following rumors that Nicholas had influenced the appointments of contracts in Bogota.
Some of these rumors involve alleged favoritism in contracts signed by the administration, including one related to the extension of the Integrated Mobility System contract, which former Secretary of Transportation, Rafael Rodriguez, and former General Secretary of the Mayor, Susana Muhamad, are also being investigated for, reported Radio Santa Fe.
The Office of the Prosecutor General will now decide if there is sufficient merit in the case. “What we want is to check whether it is true or not what some sectors are saying,” one of the officials told Colombia’s Semana newsmagazine.
