Colombian senator and 2026 presidential hopeful Miguel Uribe was critically injured in a violent shooting in Bogotá — one of the most shocking political attacks in decades. Son of the late journalist Diana Turbay, who was tragically killed after being kidnapped by Pablo Escobar’s cartel, and grandson of former Colombian president Julio César Turbay, Miguel Uribe’s life is deeply intertwined with Colombia’s turbulent history. This assassination attempt not only threatens his future but also raises chilling questions about the country’s ongoing struggle with political violence and crime.
