The Secretary of the Presidency, Álvaro Delgado, made new statements regarding the Astesiano case. «I think that in this case we must recognize the prosecutor Gabriela Fossati who has been very honest in saying some things such as that the Presidency has been the most proactive body in providing the information and agrees with what I had said days before, that we had given more information even than she had requested, “he said yesterday. At the same time, he added that “we are talking about a custodian who actually betrayed the trust of the President of the Republic, had a parallel, dark thing and that from a passport issue that the Justice began to investigate, it turns out that the majority come from the two previous governments of the Broad Front, from 2013 to date.
Delagado said that Astesiano “supposedly sold links or contacts, but it is not entirely clear that these had an effect, so it is best to let the Justice act. If the line was crossed, if there is a crime and if trust was abused, in this case nothing more and nothing less than the President of the Republic, there is a criminal issue. For us Justice has to be relentless and there should not be two opinions on this. He added “the government is the main interest in clarifying this as soon as possible and we are going to collaborate with everything that is necessary so that it is clarified as soon as possible.”
