Colombia's trial of the century: prosecution interrogates Uribe's fixer
by Adriaan Alsema November 5, 2019
The fixer of former President Alvaro Uribe returned to Colombia to be heard by prosecutors on Tuesday about his role in the alleged fraud and bribery practices of his boss.
Mafia lawyer and self-proclaimed “gangstattorney” Diego Cadena returned to Colombia on Monday to comply with the prosecution order to attend Tuesday’s 9AM hearing.
Cadena was called in for a hearing after the Supreme Court ordered the prosecution to add bribery to the growing list of crimes allegedly committed by the mafia lawyer.
. . .
The United States’ Department of Justice (DOJ) works closely with the prosecution and has reportedly refused to cooperate with the Supreme Court to gather evidence of Cadena’s alleged visits to US prisons.
