Senators Yasna Provoste (DC), Carlos Bianchi (IND) and Alejandro Navarro (PRO) announced that they will denounce Senator Iván Moreira (UDI) before the Ethics Commission of the Upper House, for his statements regarding the threats suffered by the last Tuesday night the prosecutor Ximena Chong.
It was in conversation with 24 hours that Moreira pointed out, when asked about the threats suffered by prosecutor Chong, that “It seems very normal, it seems very normal to me, because when you provoke politically you are exposed to this permanent type of threats and we do not come to play the victims.”
“Look at Twitter, but if you are not just a prosecutor. We are at this minute talking about an institution that should have the greatest respectability in the country such as the Public Ministry, and we see the Public Ministry and a large number of fully politicized prosecutors, “he said this Wednesday.
Added that “When one does politics as a prosecutor, it is without crying politics and is exposed to this kind of thing. No one is going to applaud that there is a threat, but let us not become the victims. Here is a clear double standard from the Prosecutor’s Office ”.
“I do not doubt the evidence that the police may have, in the case of the carabinero and in others the Prosecutor’s Office, but I do doubt the language and their actions, so let’s not complain today about what is happening, because the permanent provocation is made by some prosecutors, among them, Mrs. Chong, ”Moreira added.
Senator Yasna Provoste referred to this, pointing out that “these moments that we are living as a country we must be able to value peace and not generate a climate of violence. Situations of threats or violence cannot be normalized. It seems to us that an authority, invested as a senator, cannot use this rostrum to incite hatred and, I insist, tend to normalize situations that are not normal and that, on the contrary, require generalized repudiation, ”said Provoste.
Likewise, the parliamentarian added that “We want to be a society that advances in justice, and that advances in a climate of peace and reunion, but clearly here there are people who were anchored in violence and that really hurts not only our Senate, but also the country”.
For his part, Senator Alejandro Navarro (PRO) pointed out that “Senator Moreira, who kept strict silence during the investigation of the“ scraping of the pot ”carried out by the Prosecutor’s Office, today goes out into the ring to beat the prosecutors for doing their job. I don’t understand either the UDI or Senator Moreira, because when the prosecutors investigate for their convenience, these are the kings of order, but when they investigate them or investigate against their interests, then threatening them is normal. “
“Neither President Piñera, nor Senator Moreira, can threaten prosecutors. Senator Moreira has damaged the image of the Senate and the senators with his normality of threats to prosecutor Chong, and therefore, we are going to attend the ethics commission, which we hope will take action on the matter and give a guiding signal on the behavior of the senators regarding the independence of the Judiciary. Moreira’s bully has returned to his fullness ”, declared the progressive.
