Andrés de Jesús Vélez Franco and Luis Alberto Medina Salazar, alias Negro Julio or Cristomalo will be charged with the crime of perjury by the Attorney General’s Office.
The case against these two men emerged from the investigation conducted against former member of Congress Nancy Patricia Gutiérrez. The case of the latter was filed by the Supreme Court.
Medina and Velez stated before the judges of the Court that Gutierrez had links with militiamen from Magdalena Medio: Eduardo Cifuentes Galindo, alias El Águila, and Oscar William Valencia, alias El Pájaro. This fact was not proved in the process. Therefore, the offense of perjury was committed.
