Santiago. Twelve parliamentarians of the right-wing ruling party filed a constitutional charge against former Finance Minister Nicolás Grau in the Chamber of Deputies, who is responsible for intentionally falsifying figures about the state of public finances.
The constitutionalist, a long-standing DC activist, faced José Antonio Kast in the 1987 FEUC elections, has experience in constitutional accusations. He defended Yasna Provoste and Carmen Castillo and publicly opposed the opposition’s accusations against Harald Beyer, Marcela Cubillos and Emilio Santelices. His thesis is that there is an abuse of this instrument and that it cannot be used to resolve technical or political discrepancies.
In a new chapter of Segundo Piso, former government spokesmen Cecilia Pérez and Francisco Vidal analyzed the political cost of the constitutional accusation against former finance minister Nicolás Grau, and the implications that this action could have for President José Antonio Kast's own government.
The President maintained that if legislators believe that the Reconstruction project is not what needs to be done, "they must vote against it."
