Gustavo Petro stated that he removed Angie Rodríguez because, after her fight against narcoparamilitarism, she would not accept that the department of Cesar fell back into the hands of the heirs of the paramilitaries nor that the Dapre would become a clientele. He added that, although they could take revenge, as long as he was alive, he would not allow drug trafficking to take power and cause what he described as a "holocaust" against the Colombian people. Petro said he authorized anyone with evidence of his claims to file complaints with the justice system. He also urged women who, according to him, were being defamed to speak out and report, and called on a minister whose mother, he claimed, had been slandered by Angie to respond and file a complaint. He added that the person whom Angie would have defamed was the one who suggested that she become the secretary general after Laura. Petro concluded that he did not like gossip but would not tolerate what he called filth. #Colombia #Justicia #DerechosHumanos (translated)
