Prosecutor receives complaint against the CONAIE president
Both claim that Vargas, last October 10 in the Agora of the House of Ecuadorian Culture, issued comments that not only psychologically and physically offended the President of the Republic, Lenín Moreno, who has a physical limitation of movement, but all people who have that same physical problem.
Jaime Vargas said the day in question: “Gentlemen of the National Police, the Armed Forces, join the people, do not comply with those orders of that traitor, liar, thief who has joined with Lasso and Nebot. To the Armed Forces, take that support from that crap duck! ”
For Pérez, the expressions issued by Jaime Vargas “offending a person with a disability should call us attention and meditation.” In his opinion, it cannot be allowed that “under the pretext of a social or political claim it is intended to offend people”.
Coloma criticized the Prosecutor for not having initiated an investigation ex officio for this obvious hate crime. “They (Prosecutor’s Office) as their own responsibility had to follow, investigate, obtain the videos and follow the criminal procedure.”
