Criminal Complaint Filed Against Petro Government Associates Over FonIgualdad Operations
Former senator and Christian preacher Jhon Milton Rodríguez, acting as the liquidation agent for the Ministry of Equality, filed a criminal complaint with the Prosecutor General’s Office on October 24, 2026, targeting Juliana and Verónica Guerrero over their alleged irregular intervention in FonIgualdad. The financial fund, created under Law 2294 of 2023 for the Superation of Population Inequality Gaps and Territorial Inequity, operated under the oversight of the equality portfolio, which is currently undergoing liquidation. Rodríguez accused the sisters of participating without formal authority in the fund’s governing council, where he claimed they issued orders, made decisions, and established directives without any legal standing.
The Ministry of Equality and Equity in Liquidation published a statement on October 24, 2026, stating: Denunciamos a Juliana Guerrero ante la @FiscaliaCol por su presunta intervención irregular en FonIgualdad ⚖️📄 Ayer a primera hora radicamos la denuncia penal para que la justicia investigue su presencia en el Consejo Directivo y por qué presuntamente ejerció un poder de facto e influyó directamente en el rumbo de la sesión ante ministros y viceministros 📁🔍 En este Gobierno no somos cómplices por omisión: la ley se respeta y Colombia sabrá toda la verdad. De la mano de Dios, Firmes por la patria 🙏🏻🇨🇴

Allegations of Unauthorized Governance and Institutional Interference
According to statements reported by Caracol Radio and Revista Semana, Rodríguez asserted that Juliana and Verónica Guerrero exerted de facto power during governing council meetings attended by ministers and vice ministers. Rodríguez specifically questioned the presence of Juliana Guerrero, noting she purported to represent the Ministry of the Interior despite having no legitimate role in the corporate governance of FonIgualdad. reported that the liquidator accused the pair of closing sessions and directing institutional strategy while having no formal link to the Ministry of Equality. The criminal filing asks investigators to examine whether the sisters possessed any authorization to influence administrative decisions within the national fund.
Rodríguez declared: ¿Qué tenían que hacer allí? La una y que, supuestamente, estaba representando al Ministerio del Interior. Dando órdenes, tomando decisiones, cerrando sesiones, instaurando directrices, ¿qué es esto?
He added: Seguimos denunciando en la liquidación del Miningualdad asuntos por fuera de orden, presuntos delitos contra el patrimonio nacional y contra la administración pública que no hay derecho a que hayan ocurrido en Colombia en el gobierno de Gustavo Petro
Additionally, the complaint requests that investigators determine the specific functions performed by Verónica Guerrero within the organization and clarify the exact scope of her participation.
Juliana Guerrero Faces Prison for Fraudulent Accounting Degrees
The legal action coincides with Juliana Guerrero’s separate criminal record involving falsified professional credentials. noted that Juliana Guerrero was recently sentenced to three years in prison for procedural fraud after reaching an agreement with the justice system regarding fraudulent accounting degrees obtained through the Fundación San José, as she was an advisor to the Ministry of the Interior. As the liquidation of the Ministry of Equality proceeds, state planners intend to transfer remaining social programs to other government entities to preserve ongoing initiatives, while prosecutors evaluate the newly submitted evidence concerning FonIgualdad administration.
