A week ago, the new National Prosecutor, Ángel Valencia, requested the resignation of 14 heads of the specialized units of the Public Ministry, including the former candidate in his charge, Marta Herrera. After the news, the persecutor refused to resign.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Public Ministry decided to vacate the position of head of the Anti-Corruption Unit that Herrera held in the prosecuting entity. This, despite the fact that she did not submit her resignation when Valencia requested it, since she had an administrative day.
