Comptroller of Santander denounced that they attempted his life in Floridablanca

This Friday, April 15, the comptroller of Santander, Fredy Anaya Martínez, denounced through his social networks that a van was about to run him over.

According to the official's publication, at about six in the morning a gray truck with ELU 856 plates from Bucaramanga, made an attempt on his life when he was riding a bicycle through Floridablanca. According to Anaya, on several occasions he has required a security scheme in his capacity as a public official but has not been assigned to him.

He also reported that once the alleged attempt on his life occurred, he contacted the Bucaramanga Metropolitan Police so that the respective investigations could be carried out and the videos of security cameras located in that sector were analyzed.

“15 minutes ago the ELU 856 license plate van from Bucaramanga made an attempt against my life at the crossing to Floridablanca @PoliciaBmanga I have required security and it has not been provided to me. I hope there are security cameras,” the comptroller of Santander wrote on his Twitter account.

So far it is unknown whether this was an attempt on his life or was an incident such as those that occurred on several occasions on the country's roads, involving cyclists who go out to practice sports on the roads.

The authorities will be responsible for investigating and establishing whether this case is an attack on the public official or not.

Investigation into the election of the comptroller of Santander

It should be recalled that at the end of last year the Attorney General's Office reported that it opened a preliminary inquiry into the election of the comptroller in Santander, Fredy Anaya.

The Public Prosecutor's Office assured that the preliminary investigation was initiated due to the alleged irregularities that occurred in the election of the departmental comptroller of Santander.

The news was released by the representative to the House Fabian Díaz, who also assured that since the selection process for that position began, judicious work was done to denounce the irregularities that occurred.

It should be noted that one of the alleged irregularities in the Anaya election process, according to several congressmen, is that “it was done by hand”. At the time, the newspaper El Espectador reported that Giovanni Leal, vice president of the Assembly's Board of Directors, assured that Noe Alexander Medina, president of the bureau, did not consider the rest of the members in choosing the institution that would carry out the evaluation, which was ultimately in charge of the District University of Bogotá.

Likewise, it was reported that the professionals who evaluated the knowledge tests were area specialists who had nothing to do with fiscal control.

Until now, the Office of the Procurator has not commented on this subject again, so the inquiry is presumed to be still under way.
