The Chamber of Senators approved on Tuesday the creation of an investigative commission into alleged irregularities that would have occurred during the management of the Frente Amplio senator, Charles Carrera, when he served as general director of the Ministry of the Interior.
The Broad Front left firm its decision not to integrate it because exerts “undue pressure” on the judiciary. The senator of this political force, Enrique Rubio, added that the issue is already in criminal and civil judicial instances. “It is in the judicial system and it seems very improper to us, from the point of view of the separation of powers and the defense of institutionality and democracy, to make an investigative commission on the same issues, when it is done in reserve in the judicial system. Therefore, you would be, even if you did not want to, exerting undue pressure on the Judiciary,” Rubio emphasized.
But the nationalist senator, Jorge Gandini, remarked that “the same will work with the parties that are present.”
“We are not investigating Senator Charles Carrera, but his management. We do not investigate people, but apparently criminal acts,” the official legislator remarked because, in his opinion, there are “a number of new elements of abusive use of civil hierarchs who do not have the right to use the Police (Hospital) that had mutual coverage and that they used the Police for political decisions, all illegal”.
