A young woman, Deicy Jiménez, has accused former Colombian President Gustavo Petro of using government contracts to maintain intimate relationships with young women.

Jiménez claims that between 30 and 40 women were involved in similar arrangements. She also stated that she received 3 million pesos to buy cocaine from Petro.

The investigation is ongoing, with Colombia's Attorney General and the Instituto Anticorrupción seeking to probe the scandal further.
