translated from Spanish: Letelier’s situation is complicated: enter resource before the Supreme Court of the PS to punish him

The dissemination of the image of Senator Juan Pablo Letelier with Ministers of the Rancagua appeals court investigated for corruption only did worsen the situation of the “cacique” of the Region of O’Higgins.
Parliamentarian accused a “campaign orchestrated against” and then confronted the spokesperson for Government Cecilia Perez, who publicly called him to give explanations. But the Senator was now opened a domestic front, after the presentation to the Supreme Court of the PS of a resource of Sergio Roldán, a militant Socialist of Rengo, the area representing just Letelier. So far, the PS inside they have spoken cautiously against the case. The President of the community, Alvaro Elizalde, has ensured that the issue of judges of Rancagua is “very serious”, but also has opted not to comment on the bottom of the accusations against Letelier.
In that line, said the directive cannot take letters on the issue, and only the Supreme Court of the party can act in the matter. But, until this morning, there is a formal request entered.
The first requirement but the resource income changes the landscape, primarily because the requirement of Sergio Roldán “requires the opening of a disciplinary cause” against Letelier and the immediate suspension of rights activist while processing of the cause.
In the text, remember that the XXX Congress of the PS endorsed that “all our militants must adhere strictly to our supporter code of ethics” and established that “no may represent to the PS in popular elections or any other partisan office those involved in wrongdoing”.
The letter adds that the facts that are involved Letelier “end” undermining the sagging image of the Senator, in that those who are part of our party.
Also accused that the answers that the Senator has given to date are “absolutely unsatisfactory” and “do not but aggravate his irresponsible attitude”.
Also remember the curriculum of the parliamentarian, who represents the region since 1990, pointing out that “it is widely known in court circles of the region that the Senator exercised his influence to incorporate people from his personal trust” in several charges.
Question of credibility now, with the filing of this appeal, the PS should take cards in the case, primarily because it is a case that puts at risk the credibility of the policy. So you did see the party figures such as Osvaldo Andrade and Fernando Atria.
In the opinion of the exparlamentario, “there is political conduct that can deserve reproach”, while the constitutional lawyer said that “would expect that within the PS measures, were taken to mark the fact that it is not tolerable that the Senators get together with” prosecutors with excuses like this”.
“Today there is an effort to avoid that this sea of disrepute follow increasing (…)” and the meeting of the Letelier Senator with the national prosecutor does not help in prudential the prestige of the institutions. It is not, more when we are in a context in which the institutions are in crisis”, raised by Andrade.
