Bogotá: Colombian presidential candidate Miguel Uribe has died two months after being shot in the head at a campaign event, his wife announced early Monday morning.
"You will always be the love of my life. Thank you for a life full of love," Maria Claudia Tarazona wrote on her Instagram account.
"Rest in peace, love of my life. I will take care of our children," she added.
The legislator's condition had returned to critical after he suffered a new brain hemorrhage related to the assassination attempt, the clinic treating him said Saturday.
On June 7, during a rally in a working-class neighborhood of the capital Bogota, the 39-year-old conservative candidate was shot three times, twice in the head.
