The 39-year-old politician was gravely wounded on June 7 and had been in intensive care at Santa Fe Foundation hospital. On Monday, hospital officials confirmed he died at 1:56 a.m. from a hemorrhage in his central nervous system.<\/p>\n<p>Uribe, a rising figure in the right-wing Democratic Center party and a member of a well-known political family, had been seeking his party\u2019s nomination for the 2026 presidential election. His attacker, a 15-year-old boy allegedly hired as a hitman, shot him while he was addressing supporters. Uribe\u2019s wife, Maria Claudia Tarazona, shared an emotional tribute online, vowing to care for their children in his absence.<\/p>\n<p>The killing has triggered shock and condemnation both in Colombia and abroad. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio expressed deep sorrow, and Colombian President Gustavo Petro called the act a \u201cdefeat for Colombia and for life.\u201d Former President \u00c1lvaro Uribe, who leads the Democratic Center but is not related to the senator, called the assassination a blow to the country\u2019s hopes.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities have arrested six people connected to the attack, including two men accused of organizing the plot. The teenage shooter, captured shortly after the incident, claimed he had been recruited by a local drug dealer. Colombia\u2019s government has offered a 3 billion-peso reward for information, with assistance from the U.S., U.K., and UAE.<\/p>\n<p>Uribe\u2019s death revives painful memories of Colombia\u2019s violent political history. It also deepens personal tragedy for his family\u2014his mother, journalist Diana Turbay, was killed in 1991 during a failed rescue after being kidnapped by the Medell\u00edn Cartel.<\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1955088946850869671&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativebrief.com%2Fpresident-candidate-col-94086%2F&amp;sessionId=34ba3a12a4d712c1a2d8377fbf8cbb6a50eacd16&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1955088946850869671\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senator Miguel Uribe Turbay Dies After Rally Assassination Attempt Colombian Senator and presidential candidate Miguel Uribe Turbay has died, two months after being shot during a campaign&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10362,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10361","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 -
