Calls confirm Valencia Cossio's ties to 'Don Mario': Prosecution

Colombia news - Guillermo Valencia Cossio

The Prosecutor General said evidence of phone conversations between Guillermo Valencia Cossio and paramilitary 'el Indio' proves that the former Medellin director of prosecution had ties to drug lord 'Don Mario'.

Prosecution investigator Juan Carlos Mora Casallas said Friday that the voices of both Valencia Cossio and 'el Indio' were analyzed and identified as the voices speaking in recorded phone conversations.

'El Indio' is believed to have been the right hand man of captured drug king pin 'Don Mario'.

Valencia Cossio, whose brother is the current Interior and Justice Minister, is on trial for various corruption-related counts resulting from his alleged relationship with 'Don Mario'.
