So far there have been five hearings for constitutional protections that were carried out and that were activated by disqualified candidates. Three hearings were held in the city of La Paz, one in the neighboring municipality of Achocalla and the fifth in Cochabamba, all of which were unfavorable for the Assembly and the mixed commissions of the Constitution and Plural Justice.
“All the protections that have been presented to us to date have been protected and They have given guardianship to these applicants who have presented the protections. We at least believe that there is no doubt that the members and judges of the Judicial Body had every line to agree with these gentlemen, when they do not meet requirements,” admitted the president of the Joint Constitution Commission, Miguel Rejas (MAS-ala evista).
This Thursday The constitutional protection hearing presented by Alejandro Mujica was held against the mixed commission of Justice and the First Constitutional Chamber of La Paz, decided to agree with the candidate, in such a way that the legislators must review the plaintiff’s documents again.
Senator Santiago Ticona (CC) explained that the new review of documents cannot constitute a guarantee for the candidate If he is rehabilitated, the judicial rulings only instruct the Legislature to review everything again. Only the case of the Achocalla judge who ordered the candidate to be rehabilitated, ipso facto.
According to reports there are eight lawsuits that are legally notified, the five that have been carried out so far and two pending in the departments of Beni and Tarija. In addition to the popular action hearing presented in Pando. According to the legislators themselves, this is the most dangerous hearing because it directly threatens the entire process.
For his part, the president of the Constitution commission of the Chamber of Deputies, Juan José Jauregui (MAS-arcista wing) said that until now the judicial determinations are being addressed, but there is a serious risk for the case of the popular action that they presented in Pando.
“The popular action has been suspended, the session has not been established, in that case it is a little more complex because we are not talking about a particular issue in relation to a candidate, it is being alleged that the equality criteria that the law would contain 1549 was not allowing, in the case of some departments, their applicants to have the same opportunities as the rest of the applicants”Jauregui declared.
The legislators they have time against because the deadlines have already expired. This Friday it will be decided in the courts of Santa Cruz whether the process is paralyzed. The legislators believe that after the hearing they will immediately call candidates to take the exams “by time and subject.”
