The anti-terrorism statute of the De la Espriella government has a "hidden clause," according to a professor at the University of the Andes: "It has nothing to do with terrorism."

Michael Lee Weintraub, a professor and director at the Center for Security and Drug Studies at the Universidad de los Andes, has publicly criticized the De la Espriella administration's proposed anti-terrorism statute. Weintraub argues that specific components of the legislation lack a logical connection to counter-terrorism efforts, labeling these provisions as a 'mico'—a term used in Colombian political discourse to describe hidden or unrelated clauses inserted into a bill.

The critique focuses on the technical and legal content of the statute, suggesting that the government's proposal may contain extraneous elements that deviate from its stated security objectives. The professor's assessment highlights concerns regarding the transparency and legislative integrity of the current anti-terrorism initiative.
