Elizabeth Montoya de Sarria (born in 1950 ) was allegedly an emissary from the Columbian drug-trafficking Cali Cartel to then-Columbian President Ernesto Samper's 1994 presidential campaign. Her husband, Jesus Amado Sarria Agredo, was a convicted drug trafficker and former police officer with ties to the cartel. De Sarria was implicated in accusations of illegal funding to Samper's campaign after tapes of two phone calls between her and Samper and campaign treasurer Santiago Medina were published by the Bogota magazine Semana.

On Feb. 1, 1996, de Sarria was shot 12 times and killed. She was slated to testify against Samper, who was accused of receiving funds from drug cartels. The group Dignity for Colombia claimed the murder.
