William Vélez
William Vélez was a notable businessman in Colombia whose dealings have recently come under scrutiny due to his connections with Ecopetrol and its president, Ricardo Roa Barragán. His past role as a mentor to Roa in a Honduran company has raised questions about potential conflicts of interest and business ethics, particularly in light of a $5.8 million contract awarded to Covington & Burling LLP for investigating allegations surrounding Roa's involvement in a political campaign.
