The governor of Jujuy, the radical Gerardo Morales, said today that the Kirchner leader Milagro Sala " is not a political prisoner, is a common criminal who robbed the people " and stressed that he had " four convictions with double compliance " for various crimes. The declaration came at a time of strong political tension in the province due to the onslaught of Kirchner sectors that demand their release and question the legal proceedings against them.
Interviewed by Jorge Lanata, on Miter radio, the president warned that in his province there is "independence of the Judiciary" and gave as an example his disagreement with the house prison: " I do not understand why Milagro Sala is not in a common jail, when the evidence against him is very strong and has double and even triple according to his sentences . "
"Milagro Sala is not a political prisoner, she is a common criminal who robbed the town, that she and her family got rich. They bought cars, like Fiat 500, in cash, with silver bags, and her family group has homes for over a million dollars. "
Gerardo Morales revealed that in his meeting with President Alberto Fernández they talked about the arrest of the head of the Tupac Amaru organization and that in that dialogue he told him that the detention corresponded to decisions of the Justice of his province and that " the evidence in against him they are very blunt .

License Request
The president of the Superior Court of Justice, Pablo Baca, requested a license for the impact generated by the filtering of an audio recorded in a hidden way in which he is heard saying that the head of the Tupac Amaru is detained "not for his crimes, but so that we don't have to go back to the permanent quilombo, to the cuts, to the burning of rubber bands ".
Baca said he accused "the provincial deputy Débora Juárez de Bracamonte and her sister Ana Juárez Orieta of setting up an ambush" with which " they seek to discredit the Judicial Branch of Jujuy, punctually in the cases that were processed against Milagro Sala, in which I excused myself and I had no intervention of any kind . "
"It was transcribed differently from what is heard, what constitutes a criminal activity, an absolutely illegal proof that the deputies of the justicialismo would not have to take into account and therefore not to advance in any type of procedure, be it criminal or political”, continued the president of the Jujeña Court, which faces complaints and requests for political trial.
The audio with the voice of Baca was published weeks ago in the blog of the journalist Horacio Verbitsky and was taken by Peronism to denounce the existence of persecution against Milagro Sala, whom they describe as " a political prisoner" and victim of alleged " lawfare " . As of the publication, complaints and requests for removal of Baca and the magistrates who condemned it were filed.
