Abelardo De La Espriella said that the tribute was dedicated to Miguel Uribe Turbay, whom he described as a patriot, democrat, and possible future president of Colombia. He stated that Uribe Turbay was murdered by those who sought to silence his ideas and his defense of freedom. De La Espriella assured that they would not leave the crime unpunished and that he had instructed the competent authorities to identify, within the framework of the law, both those who executed it and those who planned, ordered, and financed it. He also announced that a square in Colombia would bear the name of Uribe Turbay to keep his memory alive among future generations. #Colombia #Justicia #Patriotismo (translated)
