Seven years after the arrest of
Milagro Sala
for various reasons related to corruption in Jujuy, the governor of that province, Gerardo Morales, crossed the Secretary of Human Rights, Horacio Pietragalla, who referred to "the abuses of the political authorities and judicial of Jujuy".
The national official had published a flyer on Twitter where he recalled that for seven years the leader of Tupac Amaru has been deprived of her freedom.
"7 years ago, the State must answer before the bodies of the inter-American system and the universal system for the protection of human rights for the abuses of the political and judicial authorities of Jujuy, validated by the Supreme Court, in the arbitrary persecution of Milagro Sala", wrote Pietragalla.
Governor Morales came out to cross the message and maintained, in relation to Sala, that they were all
"witnesses of how the money was stolen in Jujuy and in the country."
"Justice has not judged ideology or social militancy, it
has judged specific acts of corruption,
respecting due process and constitutional guarantees," said the man from Jujuy who aspires to be president for a radical candidacy.
In turn, the also head of the National Committee of the UCR maintained that from Tupac Amaru "they generated the worst culture of violence against people."
And he launched a direct criticism against Pietragalla for his defense of Sala: "You are Secretary of Human Rights of all the Argentine people, not of an ideological faction."
"It would be good for you to listen to the victims. There are the rights violations that you should eradicate," the man from Jujuy asked him.
Milagro Sala demanded that Alberto Fernández "have the courage" to pardon her
The Jujuy leader
Milagro Sala
once again demanded that President Alberto Fernández have "the courage" to issue a pardon in his favor, in the case where the Supreme Court of Justice has already set a 13-year prison sentence for corruption.
It was during a lengthy interview with Página 12 where she asked the President to
"use the pen"
in her case, she charged the highest court and Governor Gerardo Morales, whom she accused of "holding her in jail."
"When Alberto and Cristina took office,
I believed that history was going to change in Argentina
and that those who had destroyed the country were going to jail and those of us who helped rebuild the Homeland were going to be free," said the Tupac Amaru leader. .
In turn, he said that he also thought that "the persecution we were suffering was going to end, but unfortunately we have not had that answer."
"I do not want to say that Alberto is innocent but in some things he sins of believing in others," charged the Jujuy leader.
Sala's request occurs in the midst of the Government's advance against the Supreme Court of Justice, against whose four members they requested impeachment after the dispute with the City of Buenos Aires over the distribution of the co-participation.

That same court had ratified the ruling against Sala on December 15, rejecting the presentation of the piquetero leader and confirming the decision of the provincial supreme court.
Alberto Fernández had ruled out granting Sala a pardon in December last year, stating that
"constitutionally" he cannot do so.
"The Constitution
prohibits me from pardoning for sentences handed down by provincial courts.
I can only pardon for sentences handed down by the federal jurisdiction. With which, with great regret, I have to say that the Constitution prohibits me and I am a man of law," he said. the President had excused.
Milagro Sala: "Gerardo Morales has me in jail"
Sala also joined the Lawfare argument and argued that Jujuy was "a laboratory" of said practice.
Along these lines,
he charged hard against the provincial governor, Gerardo Morales.
"
Morales showed an unfinished house and said: that's how they left them. But it's not that we wanted to leave the houses halfway through. We had the materials bought in Túpac sheds to finish them but they didn't let us. He took over and put all the infantry in the houses", responded by the accusations of the unfinished works.
The
"Pibes Villeros" case,
for which she was sentenced, affirms that the housing cooperatives in Sala were screens to receive millionaire national funds, destined for construction plans.
"The one who has me imprisoned is Morales.
Politics is what has me imprisoned. The people are not.
The people are the ones who are suffering the needs, the abuse of this government that paints itself in the colors of democracy but the people are victims "Sala argued.
"And the lawfare, the right wing, the United States embassy, which has three objectives: lithium in Argentina, in Bolivia, they want to cover the water, lithium and oil in Latin America. And they know that if many of us had regained their freedom, they could not have devastated so much, so much, in our province," he attacked.
Sala compared her situation with that of Vice President Cristina Kirchner.
"They started with me, some looked and said: they are not going to touch me, but today many are sitting on the bench. And that is disciplining the leaders. Cristina is condemned so that she is not a candidate because she is the only one who could answer to the people ", He launched.
