Bogota, July 11 (RHC)-- Another attack against the vice president of Colombia, Francia Márquez, took place this Wednesday in Valle del Cauca, according to statements issued by the Colombian vice presidency.

Francia Márquez said: "I have been informed by my security and protection team that the main vehicle of the vice-presidential caravan, in which I normally travel, was hit by a projectile, apparently from a rifle (...) , which penetrated the interior of the vehicle without causing any injury to the occupants.”

Stating that the events occurred moments after leaving the municipality of Suárez, Cauca on the tour of what will be the new headquarters of the Universidad del Valle for the North of Cauca, the vice president added that she was fulfilling another commitment on her agenda in Cali.

“This time we have no regrets, but I cannot help but express my enormous concern for Cauca and the permanent tension that my people are experiencing every day throughout the region,” the vice president insisted.

Márquez added that “we came to bring the public university to Suárez and we are not going to give up in this effort for the future of our people.”

Vice President Francia Márquez asked the armed groups to put down their weapons, allow Cauca to live in peace and for the university program to advance.
