Senator Iván Cepeda announced, through his Twitter account, that he had filed criminal complaints against Colombian President Iván Duque and seven local mayors for alleged political intervention in favor of presidential candidate Federico Gutiérrez. According to Cepeda, the head of state “has not fulfilled his constitutional and legal duty to act neutrally during the presidential election.”

In addition to the Colombian president, the list of those accused includes Wilfredo Romero, mayor of the municipality of San Juan Nepomuceno, del Bolivar; Marco Adrián Artunduaga, Timana (Huila); Raquel Victoria Sierra, María La Baja (Bolivar); José Nicolás Ramos, Cicuco (Bolivar); Mario Javier Rodriguez, Santa Rosa de Lima (Bolivar); Eugenio Lobo, Arenal (Bolivar) and Edwin Puerta, Villanueva (Bolivar).

Iván Duque, emphasized Cepeda, was denounced to the Commission of Investigation and Prosecution of the House of Representatives. According to the congressman, the president, in the midst of the electoral contest, and despite the constitutional and legal prohibition of intervening in politics, “has repeatedly made public pronouncements that clearly demonstrate his intention to electorally harm presidential candidate Gustavo Petro.”

Cepeda assures that, in order to avoid the action of justice, Duque has omitted 'in an underground way' to mention the name of the presidential candidate for the center-left coalition Historic Pact, however, without making the literal mention, the senator comments, it is denoted that his actions are against Petro. “However, his statements are clear enough to know, without a doubt, that he alludes to him, and that he is, therefore, an absolutely determinable person,” the complaint states.
