Another of the most active characters in networks and pending in this case has also been Andrea Petro.
Through his networks, he celebrated that his father asked the Prosecutor’s Office to investigate Nicolás, which he described as an act of transparency and honesty.
The complaints
And it is that the attacks against the children of Gustavo Petro have come from all directions, even after the denunciations of Day Vásquez, ex-wife of Nicolás.
The young woman accuses him of receiving money for her father’s presidential campaign.
These gifts were not reported and he would have kept them for his own purposes.
This unleashed that the other children of Gustavo Petro, such as Andrea and Nicolás Alcocer, have been the target of criticism and even threats.
He has even treated Nicolás as ‘lazy’ after knowing the photos where he is seen partying.
The publication was shared by Juan Nicolás Viscaya who described Petro’s children as jewels.
