Colombia police captain who reported prostitution ring fired
written by EFE April 17, 2016
The police captain who blew the whistle on a male prostitution ring within the Colombia’s National Police force has been removed from his position, his lawyer said.
Attorney Jesus Vergara told journalists that the dismissal will be appealed by Captain Anyelo Palacios, who is being advised to respond legally to the decision about which the police have as yet made no public statement.
The dismissal of Palacios is related to an investigation into the crime of bribery he allegedly committed while on duty in the southern Colombian city of Florencia.
The suspected bribery was said to have occurred in June 2015 when Palacios apparently pocketed more than 500,000 pesos ($167) from a businessman in return for erasing several criminal charges against the liquor store he owned.
