A Colombian man accused of multiple sexual offences has been acquitted on several counts, though jurors remain deadlocked over three rape allegations. The case follows a trial where prosecutors sought convictions on serious charges, leaving the legal outcome uncertain. The unresolved verdict highlights ongoing debates about evidence and sentencing in high-profile sexual assault cases. Details of the jury’s deliberations and potential next steps remain unclear.


Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos was cleared of several sexual offences in July but a jury was undecided on three rape charges.
