Attack on Miguel Uribe: Woman who spoke with attacker before shooting the candidate speaks out

Regarding the investigation into the attack on Senator Miguel Uribe Turbay, which took place on Saturday, June 7, in the Modelia neighborhood of Fontibón, authorities questioned a woman seen in videos captured before the attack at the Usaquén Immediate Reaction Unit (URI) in Bogotá.

We are discussing Sandra Beatriz Castillo , who made the decision to appear voluntarily before the Prosecutor's Office, along with her lawyer, and denied any involvement in the attack that left the presidential candidate in serious condition.

A video is circulating on social media in which the woman appears briefly interacting with the alleged 14-year-old hitman , just before he shot the Democratic Center politician.

In his statement, Castillo stated that his meeting with the teenager was a coincidence and that he was unaware of the young man's intentions.

Dressed in black, with blond hair and carrying a checkered suitcase, her image was widely circulated, raising a series of questions among the public. She explained that she was only present at the event as a spectator and had no prior knowledge of the young attacker.

Meanwhile, Miguel Uribe Turbay's medical condition remains critical . The Santa Fe de Bogotá Foundation , where he is hospitalized, released a recent medical report on Monday, highlighting that the senator had to undergo two emergency surgeries: a neurosurgical intervention for a head injury and another on his left thigh. After the surgeries, he was taken to the intensive care unit for postoperative stabilization.

"The patient's condition is extremely serious, and the prognosis remains uncertain," stated the report signed by Medical Director Adolfo Llinás Volpe . The impact on the left parietal bone did not directly affect brain tissue, which offers a slight hope for recovery.

The Attorney General's Office continues gathering evidence to clarify the events and establish the responsibility of the attacker and possible masterminds. The country is closely monitoring the progress of this case, which has generated a national alert due to the increased risks faced by political leaders in the midst of a campaign.
