Senate President Adriana Muñoz expressed this morning through a video, her support and support to the president of the Medical College, Izkia Siches, in the face of death threats she has been a victim of with her family. The M MP repudiated “misogyny and racism against a brave woman, who has worked in the face of this health crisis we are experiencing,” she noted in the video.
In addition, the MSMs who are members of the Senate Committee on Women and Gender Equity also condemned the sexual connotation of death threats, stating that, “in a cowardly way, we are trying to intimidate and discredit a woman who is in a leadership situation, a fact that, unfortunately, is common in all areas of our society, and which we are struggling to change.”
The alarms of this attack were ignited following a complaint from the president of the Department of Gender and Health of the Medical College, Francisca Crispi, who made public via Twitter the message that reached the personal mail of Siches, with strong threats of “rape” and aggression towards her and her family, in addition to other serious insults, for this reason, the institution requested the POI , to the Public Prosecutor’s Office and the Ministry of the Interior, to take all the letters in the matter.
