The extradited former supreme leader of paramilitary organization AUC has said that he met with former Colombian President Alvaro Uribe when the latter was Governor of Antioquia, reported Canal Capital Sunday.

A judge asked former paramilitary head Salvatore Mancuso if he had met Uribe prior to 2002 and discussed issues not of a political nature.

"Yes, I met him," said Mancuso, though he would not elaborate further.

One of the meetings Mancuso did expand on, allegedly took place at Uribe's family owned Uberrimo estate in the department of Cordoba during the former President's three-year gubernatorial term (1995-1997). According to Mancuso, the result of this meeting was the appointment of former Police Commander, Raul Suarez.

Hearing again this brutal, mass-murdering, torturing, dismembering narcotrafficking warlord had business with Alvaro Uribe makes him look bad.
