Enrique Low Murtra

Enrique Low Murtra was a Colombian politician and lawyer, known for his tenure as Minister of Justice during the late 1980s. He became a prominent figure during the turbulent times of the Colombian drug wars, particularly for his staunch opposition to narcotrafficking. Tragically, he was assassinated in 1987 by drug cartels, making him one of the high-profile victims in the ongoing conflict between the state and narcotraffickers. His death underscored the violent repercussions of narcoterrorism in Colombia and highlighted the severe risks faced by those who sought to combat the influence of drug lords in the country.
