A Colombian politician, Miguel Uribe Turbay, has passed away after he suffered a gunshot wound to the head two months ago.
Miguel, who is a conservative senator and a presidential candidate, died at the age of 39 at a hospital in Bogota on August 11.
His wife, Maria Claudia Tarazon, confirmed his passing.
‘Rest in peace, love of my life. I will take care of our children,’ his wife, María Claudia Tarazona, wrote in a social media post confirming his death. ‘I ask God to show me the way to learn to live without you.’
