Petro criticó presencia de Abelardo de la Espriella en traslado de alias Araña: “Tiene que mostrarse porque ha sido socio de narcotraficantes”

Colombian President Gustavo Petro publicly criticized the presence of Abelardo de la Espriella during the extradition and transfer of Geovany Andrés Rojas, a gang leader known as alias "Araña" and head of the Comandos de Frontera. Petro claimed that de la Espriella participated in the event for public exposure, alleging a past association with drug traffickers.

The incident centers on the high-profile transfer of a criminal figure to the United States. While the primary event involves the law enforcement action against the leader of the Comandos de Frontera, the political friction arises from the involvement and public presence of de la Espriella.
