A Colombian court on August 1, 2025, sentenced still-powerful former president Alvaro Uribe to 12 years of house arrest after he was found guilty of witness tampering, a legal source told AFP. The sentence, which is due to be publicly announced later on Friday, marks the first time in Colombia's history that a former president has been convicted of a crime and sentenced.
