COThe mayor of Medellín, Federico Gutiérrez, criticized the failed court hearing where charges against Miguel Quintero Calle, brother of former mayor Daniel Quintero Calle, were not filed. The hearing was supposed to take place before Judge 39, but the defense argued it should have been held before Judge 27, who had been unavailable. The judge ruled that the prosecution did not justify urgency, and the case was rescheduled. Gutiérrez accused the family of corruption during Daniel Quintero’s tenure and claimed they now fear facing justice.

A doctor, Misael Cadavid, avoided prosecution by becoming a witness. Daniel Quintero himself faces investigations related to water management issues.
