Of the entity. The suspension of charges remains in effect until the criminal case against him is completed.”
Eduard Alirio Calderón, specialized anti-corruption director of the Attorney General’s Office, pointed out that an investigative work carried out by the entity revealed a criminal network that reportedly made six rulings in favor of individuals between April and August 2014 which they are administratively different entities in Atlantic.
In this sense, Calderón explained that for such purposes, a law firm would have arranged for the delivery of gifts to judicial officials and the Office of the Attorney General. And that the investigation takes into account several events in which the defendants would have intervened.
In addition to Faicy León Mass, the prosecution charged the advisor of the Atlantic Administrative Court, María Milagros Navarro Lobo, with improper bribery and own bribery; and to attorneys Victoriano Apolinar Sierra Nerio, Yenny Bustamante Toscano, Yina Paola, and Sindris María Benthan Arias, for the crimes of aggravated conspiracy to commit a crime and bribery for giving or offering.
It was initially learned that the lawyers had apparently given 10 million pesos to an administrative judge from Barranquilla and another amount to a judge from Sabanalarga to get a quick and favorable decision in a case being heard in those courts.
On the other hand, it was found that Navarro Lobo drafted a judgment in which the Atlantic Administrative Court ordered the national police to compensate a group of people, a decision endorsed by León Mass. Apparently mediated in this procedure the delivery of 12 million pesos divided between the two officials.
