The Military Forces found the indigenous governor, Jaime Nastacuas, deploying in a UNP van in the municipality of Barbacoas, with more than $200 million pesos.
The incident occurred during a military checkpoint where the indigenous governor could not justify the origin of the funds.

Under pressure from the authorities, the indigenous governor called on the community to avoid his arrest and managed to escape in the UNP van in an unknown direction.
This episode of possible corruption and lack of transparency adds to other recent cases in which UNP vehicles have been involved in illicit activities.
On this occasion, authorities discovered more than $230 million in the vehicle guarded by the protection entity.

In an official statement, the Army regretted that those transporting the money could not clearly explain its origin or destination.
The recurring presence of similar situations is worrying, such as the discovery of war material in a vehicle in Tumaco and the mobilization of FARC dissidents in UNP vehicles in Antioquia.
These events raise questions about the integrity and safety of UNP vehicle logistics and resource management.
Authorities are continuing to investigate these incidents and are expected to locate the governor.
