Colombian holding company Corficolombiana said it had no knowledge of bribes paid by Brazil's Odebrecht engineering firm in connection with a joint highway project suspended amid a Latin America-wide bribery scandal.

Corficolombiana has a 33 percent stake through its subsidiary Episol, in the Ruta del Sol 2 roadway project. Odebrecht controls 62 percent and CSS Constructores the remaining 5 percent.
