Colombian president's campaign got no Odebrecht bribes: accused senator
A former Colombian congressman detained on accusations he received millions in bribes from Brazilian engineering firm Odebrecht SA [ODBES.UL] denied on Tuesday that a $1 million portion of the money was given to President Juan Manuel Santos' 2014 campaign. Attorney General Nestor Humberto Martinez said last week that part of $4.6 million allegedly paid to ex-Liberal Party Senator Otto Bula Bula by Odebrecht was sent to Santos' campaign management. Bula's testimony will likely end the commission's investigation into the campaign, which secured a second four-year term for Santos, judicial sources said.
