The deputy was disappointed Andrés Longton (RN) after the Senate room will reject the constitutional indictment against judge Silvana Donoso.
The parliamentarian RN was the main promoter of the libel against the magistrate who participated in the Probation Commission that in 2016 released Hugo Bustamante, charged with the death of Ámbar Cornejo.
In that sense, the legislator accused this day “Wild pressures” so that the prosecution did not reach port.
“We are facing a very powerful giant. And that power was demonstrated here in the Senate “Longton began by saying.
He added that “we lavishly presented the obvious and clear legal and political arguments for a large part of the public that the work was not done, it was beaten diligently.”
In this sense, the deputy emphatically assured that “I am sure there was savage pressure in the House and the Senate for this impeachment to fail. Telephone calls, messages, of all kinds, I don’t know if they will have had an effect or not on the senators or deputies ”.
In Longton’s judgment “We have to represent the voice of those who have no voice. That is the mandate that the people gave us. And from the moment we stop fulfilling that mandate is when we end up diverting the purpose for which we were elected. We were elected to represent the people. And when the influences and the powerful manage to impose their conditions, that is precisely when that mandate ceases to fulfill its purpose ”.
“In that congress, constitutional accusations have been approved for things far less than something as serious as the one we can prove. But, unfortunately, when the accusations do not have the political tint and are transversal, the truth is that they are much more difficult to get approved “, concluded the RN.
His version was supported by Senator UDI, Ivan Moreira, one of the few parliamentarians who voted in favor of the constitutional impeachment in the Upper House.
“Here fear won, because when the Supreme Court and some politicians who are constitutionalists told us that approving a constitutional accusation of this nature, the Judicial Power was destabilized. Every time you have to act with courage, terror campaigns appear, ”he said.
“The first pressure was fear, fear, the campaign of terror. And secondly, many calls “, he concluded.
Meanwhile, the Minister of the Interior, Victor Perez, consulted on the subject, stated that “If the Senate has rejected (the accusation) it has weighed the antecedents appropriately because that constitutional accusation did not have the grounds and we respect that decision of the Senate.”
Once the room session was over and minutes after leaving the hemicycle, Minister Donoso assured that “I have just come out of a very long process and I just want to say that I am calm and I am tremendously grateful for the work of the Senate.”
“Regardless of the votes that have been cast, the seriousness of the arguments of the honorable senators shocked me, and of course that makes me very calm,” he added.
