Gladys Reina Villavicencio

Gladys Reina Villavicencio has recently come under scrutiny due to her appointment as the head of the Tax and Customs Directorate in Buenaventura, Colombia, amid a corruption scandal linked to attempts to infiltrate the presidential campaign of Gustavo Petro with illicit funds. Her appointment was controversial as it allegedly followed recommendations made by Juan Fernando Petro, the president's brother, and an emissary of Diego Marín, known as 'Papá Pitufo,' a figure involved in smuggling activities.
