The congresswomen Susel Paredes (Not Grouped) and Martha Moyano (Popular Force) staged an incident in the Plenary during the debate on the final report of the commission that investigated the 2021 Elections process, chaired by Jorge Montoya (Popular Renovation).
In his speech, Paredes Piqué considered that the investigative commission of the electoral process “it’s a fraud” because “A lot of money has been spent and nothing has been found”. This caused a word crossing with Moyano.
“They didn’t vote dead, the same people who say that their signature has been forged says: ‘it’s my signature.’ Do you know what a fraud is? This commission. It is a fraud because a lot of money has been spent and nothing decisive has been concluded”said the parliamentarian.

Immediately, Moyano replied: “I am going to ask comrade Susel with great affection to please make her speech and defend what she has to defend, but she cannot offend a commission that has been approved here in plenary. I ask you to remove that word and we continue everything normal, in peace “.
Nevertheless, Susel Paredes refused to do it. “Do you know why I can’t take the word back? Because in my absolute internal personal conviction I think that this commission is a fraud because I myself am a product of those elections. How am I going to say that there was fraud if they have elected me in those general elections?said.
Despite the request of the first vice president, Lady Camones (Alliance for Progress), the parliamentarian who came to Congress with the Purple Party: “Running all the risks, as my colleague Alberto de Belaunde said, I do not withdraw anything”.
