Electoral Campaign Financing Investigation
An investigation has been opened against President Gustavo Petro concerning potential irregularities in campaign financing during his electoral run. The National Electoral Council alleges that the campaign failed to report various contributions and payments, including compensations for electoral witnesses. This has intensified the ongoing political debate in Colombia and polarized the public, as it is the first time a sitting president is being formally investigated for such issues. The complexity of the situation is heightened by claims of political bias within the Council, which is perceived to be controlled by opposition parties.
