Chase Denied That Honor Colorado Is Considering an Impeachment Trial Against Supreme Court Justices
The leader of the ruling bloc in the Senate rejected the versions that circulated in political circles. Even so, he said the movement has the votes needed if such an initiative were ever introduced.
Senator Natalicio Chase, leader of the Honor Colorado bloc in the Upper House, denied that the Cartismo is promoting or considering a political trial against justices of the Supreme Court of Justice, according to ABC Color.
The statements came after Senator Mario Varela mentioned alleged intentions to move forward with such a measure against members of the highest court.
Quoted by ABC Color, Chase said he does not know where that information came from and stated that the matter was not discussed within the ruling bloc. He also noted that, even if it were a possibility, there were no conversations on the subject.
According to the same outlet, the lawmaker said the ruling party’s attention is currently focused on the conflicts facing the Executive Branch, including the demands and protests from the medical sector.
At the same time, Chase admitted that the movement has the parliamentary strength needed to push for a political trial if such a proposal were ever formalized. According to ABC Color, he added that there is a critical view in the Senate of various Supreme Court justices, which could make it easier to build a majority.
