Paredes assures that, “the Secom must be very careful, we see violations that do not feed the public credibility and do not feed a culture of respect for the law, watching shows; I remember and called attention when in one of the Saturday broadcasts, a donkey was presented, also two actors acting as montubios who made a mockery of a political subject that must be respected, and now a video has been made which I have not seen, called “La Feriatta” which is an offense against the dignity of another candidate. ”

The head of the CNE said that “we are drawing attention to the Secom, careful, we have had two meetings with Mr. Fernando Alvarado, the answers are given, there is still evidence showing that they are responsible for this, therefore, our duty is to act and we will issue a report to the Electoral Court for the appropriate action. We must punish, not stopping and punish the media who are falling into this kind of actions; the media must respect the law, not only the one who gives the order. “
