Solidarity for former Colombian President Uribe, who spends his days locked up without freedom.

Solidarity for former Colombian President Uribe, who spends his days locked up without freedom. In 2018, the Colombian Supreme Court decided to open an investigation against Uribe for allegedly manipulated testimony, which changed the situation. In May 2024, after years of investigations and legal appeals filed by Uribe's defense attorney, he was formally charged by the Colombian Prosecutor's Office with three crimes: bribery, procedural fraud, and bribery in the criminal proceedings. This week, the 67-day trial following the accusation concluded. Uribe pleaded not guilty throughout the proceedings, with the support of opposition political figures, such as former President Iván Duque. In opposition, the verdict was celebrated by people close to the government, who saw it as a sign of justice.
