CODaniel Briceño, a representative of the Centro Democrático, alleged the existence of a supposed hiring network at Aerocivil benefiting Gabriela Muñoz, a law student and activist associated with the Pacto Histórico, who was accused by Angie Rodríguez of managing the strings of President Gustavo Petro’s government through a network of women. Muñoz was defended by Petro against these allegations made by his former right-hand woman. In turn, Muñoz announced legal actions against critics online and denied directly controlling Aerocivil hiring. Contracts were signed for Muñoz, her brother, and cousins between 2025 and 2026, none of which reportedly disclosed conflicts of interest due to family ties. Briceño claimed that the Muñoz family influenced the appointment of Luis Alfonso Martínez Chimenty in November 2025. According to El Tiempo, Muñoz allegedly controlled hiring while working at Aerocivil, a claim supported by Briceño. After leaving Aerocivil, Muñoz joined the UTL under Marco Emilio Hincapié of the Pacto, reportedly at the president’s order.
