Former Colombian President Alvaro Uribe has been sentenced to 12 years in custody for allegedly raiding and fraudulent charges.

Uribe, who maintained his innocence, told a judge in Bogota that he would appeal against his guilty. He said that the case is “destroying the voice for democratic opponents”.

Despite the violence in the Nirbha group in Colombia, the FARC signed a peace agreement with Urb’s successor in 2016.
