This Wednesday, the constituent of Vamos por Chile Mr. Liuhuabing filed a complaint with the Ethics Committee of the Constituent Convention against Rodrigo Rojas Vade.
The former member of the People’s List stopped performing his functions as a conventional constituent after he acknowledged, in an interview with La Tercera Domingo in September last year, that never had cancer, but he continues to receive his salary because there are no regulations to remove him from the office for which he was elected.
Rojas Vade admits he doesn’t have cancer: “I feel like I have to withdraw from the Convention”
” Given the delay that Congress has had in processing the project that allows the resignation of Rojas Vade to materialize, we have presented this complaint to the Ethics Committee so that it can be sanctioned with part of his diet, “says Cretton in the document presented, stating that”Chileans are bored of lying politicians painting their faces, it can not be that month by month Rojas Vade continues to receive more than two and a half million of the constituent diet.”
Cretton, in the document presented, points out that Rojas Vade violated two articles of the Ethics rules of the Convention, so he’s asking for a financial penalty against the former member of the People’s List.
According to the conventional UDI, Rojas Vade did not comply with article 3 of the regulations, lacking “the integrity, responsibility, rigor and loyalty to the mandate that the peoples have given him.”
In addition, according to Article 37, he committed an infringement “to be absent, without justification, from Plenary sessions or committees”.
Given this situation, Cretton requested that Rojas Vade receive two penalties, because they are infractions “that correspond to different facts and behaviors”, so he requested the maximum fine for each violation of the code: “They each account for 30% of their diet, amounting to a total of 60%.”
