Duque's spy agency illegally wiretapping Colombia's congress: senator
by Adriaan Alsema November 12, 2019
President Ivan Duque‘s spy agency is illegally wiretapping the president of the peace committee of Colombia’s Congress, according to the senator.
In an interview with public television network Canal 1, Senator Roy Barreras (U Party) said that “I don’t have the slightest doubt I am being wiretapped.”
Canal 1 found out that Armed Forces Commander Luis Fernando Navarro knew that Barreras was going to make public the killing of eight minors and children in a military bombardment authorized by President Ivan Duque at least 40 minutes before.
A cameraman accidentally filmed Navarro texting a subordinate to “verify when the operation against ‘Giraldo Cucho’ was” after he apparently had been warned about the impending scandal that ended up costing the defense minister’s head.
