Colombia’s president's son arrested on money laundering charges

29th Jul 2023 

Colombian President Gustavo Petro said Saturday that his son Nicolas has been arrested on charges of money laundering and illicit enrichment in a scandal linked to Petro’s election campaign.

Colombia’s first leftist president wrote on Twitter, which is being rebranded as X, that police arrested his son and the son’s ex-wife Daysuris Vasquez.

In March, Vasquez alleged that Nicolas Petro received large amounts of money from drug traffickers and smugglers in 2022 for his father’s ultimately successful presidential campaign but instead used it to live in luxury in the northern city of Barranquilla.

Petro wrote: “I wish my son luck and strength. May these events build his character and may he reflect on his mistakes.”

“As a person and father it hurts to see so much self-destruction,” he added.

Prosecutors confirmed the arrest of the younger Petro on charges of money laundering and illicit enrichment. Vasquez was also charged with that first offense.

Since the scandal broke, President Petro has denied receiving money from the country’s powerful cocaine lords. He himself asked that his son be investigated.

Nicolas Petro was a lawmaker for his father’s party in the northern Atlantic department. News outlets published bank records of his showing he had far more money than would correspond to his salary from congress. (AFP)
