Colombia's prosecution shield against government's narco ties
by Adriaan Alsema February 26, 2021
Colombias chief prosecutor is the main man of President Ivan Duque to protect his alleged drug trafficking associates, which seems to be working well.
None of the investigations against Duques alleged mafia associates have gone anywhere after Prosecutor General Barbosa appointed some of Colombias most questionable prosecution on the cases.
One of the prosecutions most infamous prosecutors, Daniel Hernandez, is in charge of the investigations against former ambassador Fernando Sanclemente, drug lord Marquitos Figueroa and the presidents far-right Democratic Center party, which conspired with Marquitos drug trafficking organization to rig the 2018 elections.
The investigation against the presidents political patron, former President Alvaro Uribe is being taken care of by Hernandez and another allegedly corrupt prosecutor, Gabriel Jaimes.
The latter, who is investigating the former Medellin Cartel associate, has barely any experience in criminal prosecutions, but has received the support of Hernandez, who is investigating Uribes former fixer, gangstattorney Diego Cadena.
