One of the strongest accusations was made by the congresswoman of the Democratic Center, María Fernanda Cabal, who assured: “How outrageous the tasty life of Francia Márquez! While the patrolman Víctor Javier Palechor bled to death because there was no helicopter to take him out of Cauca and save his life, she uses that means of transport to get to her house in Dapa”.
Subsequently, the Vice President, through a live broadcast that lasted more than 18 minutes on her Instagram profile, He explained why he lives in that house and the reasons for arriving by helicopter.
“This morning I speak to you honestly and from the bottom of my heart to tell you how my life has changed since I became vice president. And also to clarify the malicious comments that some try to spread “initially stated Márquez.

The Vice President explained that since she took office Threats against him increased and facts have been presented that caused him to fear for his safety and that of his family. In the broadcast, Márquez stated that he had to leave the residential complex where he lived because they tried to enter through the bars on two occasions.
“I decided to find another place where I could live. From August to December (2022) I was looking for a place to live and people closed their doors to me, nobody wanted to rent a house to the Vice President. One person saw my despair because he had my family locked up in an apartment and offered me her house. she rented it to me“Marquez said.
It is worth noting that some relatives of the congresswoman live in the current house in France. Apparently her mom. Given this, Márquez assured: “I do not have a house of 5,000 million (…). Friend, calm down because that poison hurts you. Heal yourself. The hatred that you carry for humble people is something sick in you (…) Her problem is that a woman like me is living where her family lives.”

Regarding the death of the soldier to which Cabal refers, Márquez assured: “I regret the death of the soldier and express my solidarity with his family. It is not because he transported me that the soldier would have died. We can verify if on December 30 (2022) I traveled by plane or by helicopter and, even if I had, the State has more than 100 helicopters at its disposal”.
