The reform of the amnesty law which will surely be litigated in the Supreme Court you grants police and judicial powers to the Republic President for release convicted persons and probable criminals under trial.
To make more evident the failure of the 4t in the investigations of the already clarified Iguala Case and in the face of the rude attempt to impose an alternative truth by imputing false responsibilities to the Armed Forces, López Obrador, violating the law and the Constitutioninvading powers and disrupting the supposed autonomy of the Attorney General's Office of the Republic, He became an investigative agent of the Public Ministry and now too wants to be a judge.
Without being a lawyer nor have legal powershas said and reiterated that heads the investigation of the Iguala Case.
The new powers will apply, according to the ruling party, only in “relevant cases.”
When celebrating the reform, López Obrador commented:
“This law will help us a lot in the case of Ayotzinapa and other cases, but fundamentally for Ayotzinapabecause in this way they will be able to declare, give testimonies, those who participated in the disappearance of the youthsand they are threatenedfearful, and with this law we can protect them, as long as they help us by reporting what happened, breaking the so-called pact of silence.”
His optimism is surprising because what happened to the normalistas has been known since January 27, 2015, when the then Attorney General, Jesús Murillo Karam, narrated the “historical truth”: The 43 were killed by Guerreros Unidostheir burned bodies in it Cocula garbage dump and its remains thrown into the San Juan River. This version was corroborated, corrected and increased by the National Human Rights Commission in its recommendation of November 2018 and has not been denied in more than five years by the 4th government.
The application of the unnecessary and shameless amnesty law can cause negative impacts on the mammoth that is today the Ayotzinapa case: impunity for criminals who would not be punished for their actions; lack of justice demanded by the bereaved; hindering efforts to repair damage to victims and their families (including financial compensation, psychological support and measures to prevent the repetition of events like that).
Any change to the amnesty law should have considered Mexico's international obligations regarding human rights and the demands for justice and truth of those affected.
Although the reform provides that potential beneficiaries must provide verifiable and useful elements to know “the truth,” there are countless questions about the procedure to follow, including ignorance of the powers that by law correspond to the Judiciary in matters of assessment. of the evidence, as well as the motivations or factors of a political nature that may influence in favor or against those involved in the different cases…
