‘What we should do as a society is reflect on why a minor ends up immersed in a hitman network,’ Colombia’s attorney general says.
Colombia’s Attorney General Luz Adriana Camargo Garzón said on June 9 that the minor arrested in connection with attempted assassination of Colombian presidential candidate and Senator Miguel Uribe Turbay faces up to eight years in prison.
“The eventual sanction to which he would be subject is a sentence of up to eight years, which is not strictly a prison sentence … it is educational, restorative, and its purpose is to restore the rights of this minor,” she told reporters on June 9, referring to the 15-year-old boy suspected of shooting Uribe Turbay two days earlier.
