Just at a time when the Alianza Verde party is deciding in Bogotá if it gives its endorseof Mayor Daniel Quintero in the Council of Medellín.

The most recent scandal is about “tie contracts”, and revealed it in a video on social networks, Alejandro Moncada, a member of the Support Unit of a councilor of the Green Party, Daniel Duque.

The ‘tie contracts’ are those in which the official or contractor never appears to work but when charging.Moncada in his complaint documented six of these cases in the DAGRD (Administrative Department of Disaster Risk Management), the entity that is considered a bureaucratic fort of the exconcejal Flórez.And in the six cases it established that they would be people linked to him for emotional ties or life experience.

But that is not the only irregular fact that splashes Flórez.The Colombian followed the threads of that investigation and found that the problem is not just ‘ties’ but also t -shirts.It turns out that the “quotas” of the exconcejal in different units of the Mayor's Office of Medellín are selling shirts to finance Flórez's campaign to the Senate.

Álex Flórez ahora tiene líos de camisetas y ‘corbatas’

At first glance one might think that this management is wrong to contribute to a campaign.But the problem is that contractors do not do it for pleasure if not obliged.

At least this was told to El Colombiano two of the people who engaged labor in the municipality thanks to the influence of Flórez or the independent movement and those who have now had to bring out their vendors' skills to preserve their position.

One of them reported that in his case and in many others of the agency in which he works, he were summoned twice to the office of the then Councilor Flórez.This is the widest office of the council and in which more discrete meetings can be had because it is the only one located on the third floor, while the other lobbyists serve on the second floor.

"We were in a group of ten.The first time was to explain that Alex was going to launch into the Senate and the second showed us some t -shirts with inscriptions such as ‘The future resembles us’, ‘Free public education’ and ‘Rights are not bought’.Each is worth 50.000 pesos and one must answer for several, whether it offers them between family and friends, or paying them for what he earns.They told us that it was a voluntary thing, but that if we did not collaborate they could not continue helping us, ”said the source.

Another witness and victim of the enclosure, added that apart from the above, they had to buy their own shirt, and in this case the value was 5% of the fees they received per month.Thus, things, if the official's salary was six million pesos, the shirt ended up using 300.000 pesos.

"The indication was that the payment had to be done in cash.Who coordinated the logistics was Juan Corrales (Right hand of Álex Flórez) and sometimes he was also a mayor of the commune 4 ”, they said.
