The decision of the president of the National Assembly, Virgilio Saquicela, to post on the institutional website the public apology for the violation of the rights of the four members of the Council for Citizen Participation and Social Control (CPCCS), after a ruling by a constitutional judge, caused rejection among his political allies.
Saquicela justified his decision to publish the public apology, on December 13, because it is a sentence and in the legal framework it must be complied with, although he pointed out that this sentence is irritable, tampered with and manipulated, that it intends to meddle in another power of the Condition.
National Assembly complies with constitutional ruling and apologizes to the four members of the Citizen Participation Council
The head of the legislature demanded that the judge of La Concordia, Ángel Lindao, notify Parliament with the sentence, since he assured that seven days have passed and the judicial notification has not arrived, and that “by keeping the sentence, the judge does not allow to operate the appeal in the Santo Domingo canton.
He said that he shares with the assembly members of the Social Christian Party (PSC), Union for Hope (UNES), Izquierda Democrática (ID) and some of Pachakutik “this discomfort that we have to be forced to publish a supposed public apology regarding some dismissed officials; however, legally speaking, no matter how irritating the sentence, it must be complied with”.
The Social Christian bench rejected the statement on the public apologies and insists that the four CPCCS councilors continue in a flagrant arrogation of functions “thanks to the favor of the Council of the Judiciary and the Government.”
That the plenary session, the highest body of the National Assembly, has already ruled with 89 votes in support regarding the illegitimate, illegal and lacking legal effectiveness precautionary measure that became a protection action by the judge of La Concordia, and that this resolution prevails over any bulletin, according to the document signed by legislator Esteban Torres.
His co-ideator, Luis Almeida, and uncle of one of the CPCCS counselors, assured that the judge who ordered the public apologies is managed by two assembly members who “manage justice in Santo Domingo Gruber Zambrano and Mr. Vanegas.” And he announced that the Assembly, with its current majority, will not install any official who is elected by this “false council.”
He questioned that the president of the Assembly, Virgilio Saquicela, with his publication of the public apology intends to allow “overwhelming the concept of the Legislative Function, I think that things should not be like that.”
The UNES correista bench, in a statement, also rejected the institutional bulletin with public apologies, because it contradicts the resolution approved on December 9 by the plenary session of the National Assembly.
In that resolution, he adds, it was ratified the dismissal of the four former CPCCS advisers, and to demand that the State Attorney General’s Office investigate the possible crime of usurpation of functions. The decisions of Inspection and Political Control of the National Assembly go above any published bulletin.
The head of the legislature stated that the possession of the Superintendent of Banks will be a reason for analysis, because on August 11 Raúl González Carrión already took office as the new superintendent and that there is a protection action in the city of Guayaquil and its results will be awaited. .
plate placement
Virgilio Saquicela announced that this Thursday, December 15, a plaque will be placed as ordered by the judge of La Concordia with the phrase ‘No power of the State is above constitutional power’. In the placement of that plaque it will be known what will be the outcome of the Irrican sentence.
He questioned whether the judge acted swiftly on the day of the hearing when he read the sentence, but he claimed that same swiftness in notifying the sentence, that he complied with the sentence by publishing the apology based on an official letter, because at the moment he did not the judgment is known in its entirety.
Within Pachakutik there are two positions regarding the decision to publish the public apology. On the one hand, legislator Mario Ruiz, from the province of Imbabura, said that President Saquicela’s decision is inconsistent, because he himself has indicated that the National Assembly is the first power of the State, therefore it must be respected by the other state institutions.
“The president of the Assembly had to remain in his position, if he says that the Assembly has complied; Why is he complying with resolutions from other State powers if he says that we do not have to let them interfere in our function, it is simply a matter of coherence ”, he claimed.
On the other hand, Salvador Quishpe, also from the Pachakutik block, pointed out that it is a shame for the National Assembly to have to apologize publicly for the mistakes of a few, but at a good time that the president, Virgilio Saquicela, begins to shed light that he is going to show with the facts respect for the Constitution, the law and in this case the resolutions of justice.
The legislator Ricardo Vanegas, from the Pachakutik bloc, clarified that the judge did not lower any impeachment trial carried out by the plenary session of the National Assembly, because the trial of the seven CPCCS advisers was carried out in the Oversight Commission, where all deadlines expired. , and because of this, no report was delivered that would make a trial possible before the plenary session of Parliament.
What the legislator Mireya Pazmiño (separated from Pachakutik) did is raise a motion on something that was not supported by a report and the plenary session incorrectly applied article 142 of the organic law of the Legislative Function, which refers to the control processes and not to political trials.
Therefore, Vanegas added, what the Assembly resolved was an act and not a political trial, and that resolution, which has an administrative nature, is susceptible to a constitutional protection action, and for this, article 84 of the Constitution must be reviewed, where it is established that any act emanating from the Assembly must comply with the rights of citizens.
