A PENALTY FEE WAS IMPOSED TO GUSTAVO PETRO.

Nowadays, the Colombian senator received the notice that will not be able to work as
a senator for a penalti fee imposed by constitutional court.

¿why? While he was Mayor of Bogotá (2012-215), the former presidential candidate
was fined by the District Comptroller for the handling of garbage and "anti-technical"
subsidies in Transmilenio tickets at Valle hours.

The Superintendence of Industry and Commerce, on the other hand, also fined Petro
for the issue of garbage.
How do they affect it?

The position of the Court would make Petro lose his position as senator and be
disqualified, but the fines are suspended for precautionary measures, so he maintains
his seat.

A Help sent for Petro.

For Murillo, the senator would have two ways that would serve to avoid an inability. On
the one hand, the statute of the opposition, which agreed to have been second in the
race to the Presidency of the Republic.

That article establishes that the disabilities can be regulated and limit the political
exercise as long as it is by judgment and sentence of a criminal (judge), not a fiscal
(control entity), "he stressed.

Finally, Murillo said, those condemnations to the country could be from "adapting its
domestic law to the Convention, modifying the Constitution, and repairing and
restitution of rights to Petro."
