FORMER COLOMBIAN PRESIDENT ALVARO URIBE VELEZ ATTENDING HIS TRIAL 3. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) SENATOR IVAN CEPEDA SAYING: "We firmly believe that former president Uribe should be convicted on all charges and for the accusation that has been made." (Question from a journalist - Any comment on the topic that came up about Mercedes Arroyave? Response from Iván Cepeda - "No, I'm not going to get into specific details, no. But what do you think, senator? It's been 13 years of this trial, what does all the time you've spent defending what happened to you leave you with? The satisfaction of saying that we have reached today in Colombia the instance in which a very powerful man who believed he was above any examination or questioning by justice has had to appear and will have to answer before a judge of the Republic." 4. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) ONE OF FORMER PRESIDENT ÁLVARO URIBE VÉLEZ LAWYERS, DR. JAIME LOMBANA VILLALBA SAYING: "We have the conviction of the absolute and complete innocence of Dr. Álvaro Uribe Vélez. I believe it has been demonstrated in a public trial that there are no grounds for the two conducts he was accused of. I believe it has become clear that he was not aware of some episodes that occurred and especially that there was entrapment on the part of Monsalve and Mr. Vélez in two specific cases. The others have their different explanations. That is the presentation and we insist that we know that whatever the direction of the ruling, this will not end here. Whether they acquit, we know we will go to a second instance, but we are fully confident in the declaration of innocence of Dr. Uribe Vélez, without that meaning any lack of autonomy. We believe in absolute respect for the honorable judge. From my part, I believe it has been an objective, neutral, public trial with guarantees and we have to wait for the ruling."BOGOTA, COLOMBIA - JULY 8, 2025: Former Colombian President Alvaro Uribe Velez attended his trial on charges of procedural fraud, witness tampering, and bribery, in Bogota, Colombia on Tuesday (July 8).
