“We have indicated that all constitutional and supranational channels will be used to defend what corresponds in a democracy in a constitutional State. It will have to be established that there is an imminent damage to constitutional rights and a precautionary measure will have to be instrumentalized via an amparo or a provisional measure before the corresponding international instances”, he declared to Exitosa.
“[¿No van a aceptar la moción de vacancia?] That’s right and for a simple reason. What is intended with this third vacancy is to make a subjective hybrid of causes that have already been discussed in the first and second vacancy. In addition, they want to make inferences and legal qualifications of facts and apparent elements of conviction that have not been corroborated that correspond to the fiscal field. They want to build a permanent moral incapacity on the basis of an investigation, ”he added.
