Desirée Masi, a national senator for the PDP, questioned on social networks that there is no real reason for the removal of Celeste Amarilla. She posted that, despite the evidence against Erico Galeano with his links to money laundering, do not be outrageous.
“It doesn’t make any sense because Celeste can say what she said. They also tell her that she negotiated with the school snack, she can also sue her taking into account the same criteria. It is a bill pass. You have to be careful with this issue because that’s how senators and deputies are silenced, ”she said.
The legislator alleges that, in order to criticize and denounce people who cannot do so, legislators have privileges.
“Opening this door will mean that legislators will no longer be able to file complaints. If a tender is rigged. Or if companies agree to raise the price of a work. Many of the things we say we do under the protection of our jurisdictions, that no one can demand that we have proof. We receive complaints of domestic violence, sexual harassment and many more, ”he questioned.
He finally said that there is a clear attempt to censor here. And with this criterion they will not be able to criticize anyone anymore.
“Freedom of expression cannot be curtailed. We parliamentarians have the right to express ourselves without revealing sources”, she concluded.
