Spanish term or phrase: concurrencia
¡Hola! I'm translating the following news report about the case against former Colombian President Alvaro Uribe: https://www.elcolombiano.com/colombia/estas-son-las-pruebas-...

In the following section, I cannot understand the meaning of "concurrencia." Does this refer to the simultaneity in which the crimes (soborno y fraude procesal) were committed? "The examination of the evidence sufficiently proves that [the crimes] were committed simultaneously"?

"La determinación de la Sala Especial de Instrucción de la Corte Suprema de Justicia de dictar medida de aseguramiento en contra del expresidente y ahora senador Álvaro Uribe Vélez está basada en el cumplimiento de los requisitos que para tal fin impone la Ley 600, entre ellos que exista la posibilidad de la comisión de los delitos imputados, en este caso soborno en la actuación penal y fraude procesal, pero para los magistrados va más allá.

“El examen probatorio *****deja expuesta con suficiencia su concurrencia*****, advertida como está la existencia de las conductas punibles que pueden y deben atribuirse al senador Uribe Vélez como posible responsable a título de determinador, puesto que se aprecia actuó con dolo, vale decir, con conocimiento de los hechos, conciencia de la ilicitud y la voluntad o querer su realización”, se lee en el auto 52.240 al que tuvo acceso EL COLOMBIANO."

Thanks in advance!

Explanation:
I believe in this case what is being said is that it has been established "con suficiencia" that Uribe was a participant in the crimes charged. Or it could be "involvement," but I think here "participation" is better.
See from the DLE entry for "concurrencia":
"4. f. Asistencia, participación."
