00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:09.080
At the WU, Colonel' s
report with the Superintendent' s scoop today
2
00:00:09.119 --> 00:00:13.759
' s report. Daniel Welcome.
This is today' s Colonel report.
3
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:18.000
The Superintendent of Family Allowance, Luis
Guillermo Pérez, was dismissed from his post
4
00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:22.559
and disqualified for twelve years from performing
public functions by the Attorney General' s
5
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:28.600
Office. The Public Prosecutor' s
Office points out in its decision that Luis
6
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:32.039
Guillermo Pérez was guilty of two very
serious offences. First, he did not
7
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:38.159
know the list of eligible administrative directors
to appoint persons who had not participated in
8
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:44.000
the prior convocatorial legal summons that had
been held in May of two thousand twenty
9
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:46.679
- two, that is, in
the government of President Iván Duke. According
10
00:00:46.679 --> 00:00:52.159
to the decision of first instance,
Superintendent Pérez lowered the requirements to accommodate other
11
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:59.640
persons, thereby violating the principles of
equality, legality and morality. Second,
12
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:06.640
the Attorney General' s Office says
that Superintendent Luis Guillermo Pérez exceeded his functions
13
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:11.400
by asking the family compensation funds for
contributions to support an initiative by Monsignor Rubén
14
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:15.920
DarÃo Jaramillo to help the population of
good fortune. The Office of the Procurator
15
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:23.680
points out that, regardless of the
fine humanitarian and altruistic nature, the superintendent
16
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:27.719
has no authority to ask the entities
under his supervision for contributions other than those
17
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:32.920
required by law. The dismissed Superintendent, for his part, points out that
18
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:37.840
the Attorney General' s Office has
committed several irregularities. Dr Pérez states that
19
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.120
the disciplinary proceedings against him were initiated
without any complaint, but at the direct
20
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:51.599
request of Attorney General Margarita Cabello Blanco. The dismissed superintendent also claims that,
21
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:57.239
behind all these facts is the president
of hoaxes, the guild that groups the
22
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:01.239
compensation boxes together. This is attorney
Adriana Guillén, wife of former Attorney General
23
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:07.959
Edgardo Amaya. According to the version
of the dismissed and disqualified official, Dr
24
00:02:07.479 --> 00:02:10.840
Guillén herself told her that she and
her husband, the former Maya Prosecutor,
25
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:15.759
were very close friends of Attorney General
Margarita Cabello Blanco and other public prosecutor officials
26
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:22.879
who have participated in her process.
He also says that when his first lawyer,
27
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:28.360
Gustavo Quintero, resigned in the middle
of a hearing, Fernando RodrÃguez,
28
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:34.680
who had been Private Secretary Edgardo Maya
when he was Attorney General, was appointed
29
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.039
as a lawyer and office. She
also claims that when she appealed to the
30
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:44.639
prosecutor who was prosecuting him, the
prosecutor Yolanda Reyes continued to act and the
31
00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:49.759
challenge was denied within the record two
hours by the disciplinary chamber of the prosecutor
32
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:53.159
' s office. Last Friday,
at five o' clock in the afternoon,
33
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:58.400
the deadline for closing pleadings expired.
However, yesterday at noon in just
34
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:01.800
a day or a half skillful,
the prosecutor' s office wrote and issued
35
00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:06.080
a judgment of one hundred and ten
pages, dismissing it and disabling it.
36
00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:10.120
So far we greet the dismissed superintendent
of family allowance, Luis Guillermo Pérez.
37
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:15.520
Good morning, Dr Pérez, very
good morning, Daniel and first of all
38
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:21.639
July that I am not suspended for
corruption or sanctioned for corrupt. Corruption is
39
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:28.439
elsewhere. Well, Dr Perez,
let' s start over there for the
40
00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:32.159
reasons of your dismissal. The Attorney
General says you had no legal power to
41
00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:37.800
change the list of eligible persons to
management positions in the compensation boxes. Why
42
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:46.560
he did it, look Daniel.
It is not a legal occasion to establish
43
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:53.759
a chosen list. That has never
happened in the family allowance system in the
44
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:59.639
government went Duque, already when he
was leaving in a day before the President
45
00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:06.560
left set up a closed list under
the budget that a public call. Never
46
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:13.840
a public summons and the former and
superintendent has more faculties than the prostitute than
47
00:04:13.919 --> 00:04:18.639
mine and the law things are undone. As it simply makes you, I
48
00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:25.519
opened the list of democratic objects so
that many more people could apply for you
49
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:30.759
and, indeed, seventy- six
new people were linked in the possibility of
50
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:35.600
being appointed directors or agents of intervertion
of intervention boxes. Says the attorney general
51
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:42.800
' s office that you asked for
money from the compensation boxes monitored and controlled
52
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:46.160
by you to help the population of
bliss that money. You' re a
53
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:49.839
lawyer and I' m not a
lawyer, Doctor Perez, but I'
54
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:55.639
ve always heard that individuals can do
everything that the law doesn' t forbid
55
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:57.360
them, and officials can only do
what the law allows them to do.
56
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:01.959
What a rule of your ability to
ask for those contributions to the compensation boxes.
57
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:08.199
Okay. I believe that the prosecutor
does not know that we live in
58
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:11.240
a social state under the rule of
law. He does not know that article
59
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:15.600
ninety- two of the Constitution states
that all citizens of our country must defend
60
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:21.240
human rights. He is not aware
of article 22 of the Constitution, which
61
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:26.879
states that all persons in this country, whether natural or legal, must claim
62
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:30.079
peace as a right, but it
is also a social obligation, that is,
63
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:33.920
that any person must contribute to passion. For more reason he is a
64
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:39.079
public official and with more reason and
one is part of a government that is
65
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:46.920
profusing the pasta, a colloi one
can be foreign anywhere in the Colombian territory.
66
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:53.399
â How not to obey the agonizing
callâ Lario Jaranero excused. He
67
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:56.040
told me to help one hundred and
thirty- thirty change this truce. Local
68
00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:00.199
government does not contribute to departmental government. Neither does the national come with his
69
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:08.319
resources and I asked the funds voluntarily
in solidarity those that could contribute with Mr
70
00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:12.800
Ruben Dario the money that never happened
to go came directly to the social pastoral
71
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:19.000
of good fortune, for how they
can reproach him. Pro Recognize if you
72
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:24.600
are a praiseworthy initiative and then say
that this is among my public functions,
73
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.519
for of course yes, as the
system of your family study is going to
74
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:30.120
be alien to the peace of the
country, to respect for human rights in
75
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:35.079
Colombia, because the population of good
fortune is not also part of the family
76
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:42.720
subsidy system through its workers. Well, Dr Perez, but you don'
77
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:46.240
t find it clear that you couldn' t ask for any input, even
78
00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:48.680
for that noble cause, from the
entities vindicated by you. I want to
79
00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:54.839
give you an example. Imagine that
the Superintendent of Industry and Commerce calls the
80
00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:59.399
president of supermarkets successes, whose commercial
activity watches over him to ask him for
81
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:02.279
a talk to help poor children or
peace. If I am the success,
82
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:08.399
I have the right to think that
the entity, the institution that controls my
83
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:11.680
activity, is putting my hand in
my pocket beyond my legal obligations. You
84
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:16.199
don' t see it that way, not at all, and remember that
85
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:20.920
when the family allowance system has been
called upon to help solve tragedies like the
86
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:28.079
Armenian earthquake, such as the extremely
severe floods in Putumayo, no superintendents were
87
00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:34.839
discerned there disciplinaryly because they called the
boxes to show solidarity. So no.
88
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:42.879
This really has no constitutional or legal
basis. That reproaches the obligation of any
89
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:46.240
person in Colombia to contribute to respect
for human rights and peace. I insist
90
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:48.800
on it, and with more reason, he is only a public official.
91
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:56.439
So you can' t just pretend
to establish a twelve- year inability to
92
00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:00.600
restore me the way you' re
doing it, because, in solidarity with
93
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:05.120
a call that asked me to Monsignor
Rubén DarÃo? I insist on it distressing
94
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:09.800
to help save life, we save
in prison lives. A Mr Rubén DarÃo
95
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:13.360
has thus declared it before the Attorney
General' s Office. The directors of
96
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:18.079
the boxes have all stated that they
never felt compelled to contribute. Many even
97
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:22.879
went to declare that they did not
contribute because they had no resources to do
98
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:26.480
so. The family allowance system was
never affected because the resources for prosecutors of
99
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:31.279
four percent were not used. Those
who contributed did so through their wages or
100
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:39.080
employers who also contribute to the family
compensation funds. The system was never affected.
101
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.559
Quite the contrary, as several said
among others. There is therefore a
102
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.639
greater chance that there will be a
company and if there are more companies,
103
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:50.080
the system of family allowance will grow
more, because more contributions will reach the
104
00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:56.759
compensation funds. Okay, but,
Perez, let' s go now with
105
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.039
the alleged irregularities in the disciplinary process. Against you, why do you say
106
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:05.840
that this process cannot be initiated at
the request of the Attorney General, Margarita
107
00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:13.120
Cabello Blanco. Yes, there is
no complaint against me about any complaints from
108
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:20.480
anyone, any officials of the Superintendency, or any citizens. This originated or
109
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:26.279
petitioned by order of Margarita Cabello and
in friendly relations, as Adriana Guillén told
110
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:31.320
her, in front of officials of
the Superintendency, of her family study and
111
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:37.039
other people of her close friendship with
daisy hair. What has bothered them,
112
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:41.679
because it has bothered them that I
arrived in the system to remember that this
113
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:46.559
system does not belong to the directors
of the boxes, it does not belong
114
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.159
to political plans. It is a
system of all working families in Colombia,
115
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.159
which have an immense heritage that has
grown over more than sixty- five years.
116
00:09:56.799 --> 00:10:00.919
It bothered them that I asked more
than 100, 000 jobs and workers
117
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:05.519
who are in the decent low family
compensation boxes and signed a pact with the
118
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:09.679
Minister of Labour and with me the
nine vision of two thousand twenty- two.
119
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.600
It bothered them that I asked them
to sign a pact for early childhood
120
00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:18.399
and adolescence, so that our children
and young people in the long periods of
121
00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:24.120
vacation, could have cultural, playful, sporting, human and spiritual growth activities
122
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:30.000
through the great resources that family compensation
boxes have in those valley hours that are
123
00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:35.720
never used during the week in those
recreation centers. When I' m demanding
124
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:41.639
that through the school feeding program or
the complementary school day, no child endure
125
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:46.320
hunger, that bothers them, that
bothers them. That' s why they
126
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:50.240
work for me. This is all
unusual. Daniel, when you started your
127
00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:54.360
problems with the box president, Dr
Adriana Guitén, who is married to former
128
00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:58.200
attorney Edgardo Maya, why do you
say that that influenced the decision on her
129
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:05.519
with everything she always let me know
from the outset about that friendship relationship she
130
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:13.200
had with Margarita Cabello. She hinted
that I had to bend my head and
131
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:16.440
submit to what she wanted, because
she managed the system as she wanted and
132
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:22.320
you associate as she wanted and taking
advantage of that relationship with her husband,
133
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:28.840
Edgardo Maya and Margarita Cabello, ordered
this persecution against me. How it is
134
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:33.879
possible that in a month they have
practiced twenty- three testimonies, three or
135
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:37.360
four per day, as if I
had nothing else to do, as if
136
00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:46.039
my defense attorney had no other cases
to attend And when my defense attorney trusted
137
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:48.960
came to light to one testimony and
asked for it to be postponed please,
138
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:54.080
because he had been with his wife
until five in the morning in a clinic,
139
00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:56.440
he does not postpone it and when
he resigns he tells him that they
140
00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:00.240
want to stay the same five days
and I had to revoke the power in
141
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:01.840
solidarity so that he can go home. Or it' s not done.
142
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:07.440
And I defend my rights, not
so much because I am Luis Guillermo Pérez
143
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:13.200
Casas, I defend my rights as
a Colombian citizen, because this cannot be
144
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.080
allowed to happen to anyone in the
country. The supervisory body, such as
145
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:20.519
the Attorney General' s Office,
cannot be used and abused for personal or
146
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:28.879
partisan purposes. You claim, Dr
Perez, that you were put on the
147
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.120
line of attorney and office when this
resignation of your tenured attorney was filed.
148
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:37.200
The former private secretary of Attorney Eduardo
Maya was given legal counsel. Yes,
149
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:46.240
so I was named Fernando, Fernando
RodrÃguez Castro, who said that on a
150
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:50.399
weekend, very laudable on his part, what a great interest in contributing to
151
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:56.000
justice. One weekend he heard twenty- three testimonies. Over a weekend,
152
00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:01.360
more than a thousand leaflets were read
and then a diligence came to guarantee my
153
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:05.720
right to the defense, because yes, I congratulated him on that, but
154
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:07.399
at the same time I asked him
if it was true that he studied the
155
00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:13.080
file. He must have found a
testimony under the gravity of the oath,
156
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:18.960
which fairly established that Adriana Guillén,
Edgardo Maya Villa sol and Margarita Cabello had
157
00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:24.600
decided this persecution against me and he, having been a private secretary and close
158
00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:28.759
friend, Edgardo Maya Villazón, could
not, according to the lawyer' s
159
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:33.799
statute, accept that defense of his
own accord. Dr Pérez Uste has spoken
160
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:37.440
of several records in the decision-
making times of his process. Please briefly
161
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:45.440
mention some of those times that you
point to as a good record. First,
162
00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:52.480
the fact that when I have challenged
the number one prosecutor, Dr Yolanda
163
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:58.879
Reyes, the woman herself being challenged, Dr Reyes produces three cars in a
164
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:09.080
few hours, three cars one to, indeed accept that the ex officio lawyer,
165
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:15.279
Fernando Sánchez Castro, could not be
my lawyer. Secondly, in order
166
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:20.200
to close the debate on evidence,
although there was evidence in my favour for
167
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:22.360
its practice or that they had already
been decried, the law is very clear.
168
00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:26.759
The only one who can give up
the evidence that has already been decreed
169
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:30.159
is the adria party could not do
so. And thirdly, I end up
170
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:35.559
in ten days before the closing arguments
are filed. My lawyer. Finally,
171
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:41.320
I obtained MiguelÃngel del RÃo and
MiguelÃngel del RÃo as a trusted proxy
172
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:43.679
when they recognized his personality. It
is two days before the deadline, the
173
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:50.720
intimidating period, therefore, to submit
the closing arguments and despite his request that
174
00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:54.080
it be suspended in order to be
able to know the file, he was
175
00:14:54.120 --> 00:15:01.080
not given that opportunity. Then,
in a record time too the lady does
176
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:07.440
not accept Dr Yolanda Reyes does not
accept the challenge raised. He sends him
177
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:13.960
to the Deputy Attorney General of the
Nation to resolve the challenge and also sends
178
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:18.039
him to the disciplinary ward, a
disciplinary ward is made up of three persons.
179
00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:20.559
When a disciplinary chamber is established,
what is the rules of procedure for
180
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:26.720
the session? In two hours.
The disciplinary ward denies the challenge. On
181
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:31.559
Friday of the previous week, the
ten- day deadline for filing qualifiers was
182
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:39.159
completed. Present a tutelage this Monday
against such arbitrariness and I warned Dr Yolanda
183
00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:48.240
Reyes to wait for the ruling of
the constitutional judge before proceeding to sanction me.
184
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:52.720
As an adverse ruling against me was
rightly anticipated and he did not attend.
185
00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:58.279
I take it. It is possible
that I have issued a ruling just
186
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:03.919
as you have pointed out, day
and a half in a hundred and ten
187
00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:11.320
- page car and additionally prolongs my
suspension by another fifteen- page car for
188
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:14.960
three more months, among other things. I was already under an obligation to
189
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:18.480
return to my post in February of
this year and it did not because the
190
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:26.279
cause for which I was suspended had
disappeared. Well, a thousand thanks to
191
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:32.480
Luis Guillermo Pérez, superintendent of family
allowance, dismissed and disqualified for twelve years.
192
00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:37.039
A second distance, a guardianship action
and a criminal complaint are pending.
193
00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:41.799
We' ll see what for all
this. This was today' s Colonel
194
00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:41.600
report. Thank you very much.
1
00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:09.080
At the WU, Colonel' s
report with the Superintendent' s scoop today
2
00:00:09.119 --> 00:00:13.759
' s report. Daniel Welcome.
This is today' s Colonel report.
3
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:18.000
The Superintendent of Family Allowance, Luis
Guillermo Pérez, was dismissed from his post
4
00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:22.559
and disqualified for twelve years from performing
public functions by the Attorney General' s
5
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:28.600
Office. The Public Prosecutor' s
Office points out in its decision that Luis
6
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:32.039
Guillermo Pérez was guilty of two very
serious offences. First, he did not
7
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:38.159
know the list of eligible administrative directors
to appoint persons who had not participated in
8
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:44.000
the prior convocatorial legal summons that had
been held in May of two thousand twenty
9
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:46.679
- two, that is, in
the government of President Iván Duke. According
10
00:00:46.679 --> 00:00:52.159
to the decision of first instance,
Superintendent Pérez lowered the requirements to accommodate other
11
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:59.640
persons, thereby violating the principles of
equality, legality and morality. Second,
12
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:06.640
the Attorney General' s Office says
that Superintendent Luis Guillermo Pérez exceeded his functions
13
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:11.400
by asking the family compensation funds for
contributions to support an initiative by Monsignor Rubén
14
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:15.920
DarÃo Jaramillo to help the population of
good fortune. The Office of the Procurator
15
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:23.680
points out that, regardless of the
fine humanitarian and altruistic nature, the superintendent
16
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:27.719
has no authority to ask the entities
under his supervision for contributions other than those
17
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:32.920
required by law. The dismissed Superintendent, for his part, points out that
18
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:37.840
the Attorney General' s Office has
committed several irregularities. Dr Pérez states that
19
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.120
the disciplinary proceedings against him were initiated
without any complaint, but at the direct
20
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:51.599
request of Attorney General Margarita Cabello Blanco. The dismissed superintendent also claims that,
21
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:57.239
behind all these facts is the president
of hoaxes, the guild that groups the
22
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:01.239
compensation boxes together. This is attorney
Adriana Guillén, wife of former Attorney General
23
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:07.959
Edgardo Amaya. According to the version
of the dismissed and disqualified official, Dr
24
00:02:07.479 --> 00:02:10.840
Guillén herself told her that she and
her husband, the former Maya Prosecutor,
25
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:15.759
were very close friends of Attorney General
Margarita Cabello Blanco and other public prosecutor officials
26
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:22.879
who have participated in her process.
He also says that when his first lawyer,
27
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:28.360
Gustavo Quintero, resigned in the middle
of a hearing, Fernando RodrÃguez,
28
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:34.680
who had been Private Secretary Edgardo Maya
when he was Attorney General, was appointed
29
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.039
as a lawyer and office. She
also claims that when she appealed to the
30
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:44.639
prosecutor who was prosecuting him, the
prosecutor Yolanda Reyes continued to act and the
31
00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:49.759
challenge was denied within the record two
hours by the disciplinary chamber of the prosecutor
32
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:53.159
' s office. Last Friday,
at five o' clock in the afternoon,
33
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:58.400
the deadline for closing pleadings expired.
However, yesterday at noon in just
34
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:01.800
a day or a half skillful,
the prosecutor' s office wrote and issued
35
00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:06.080
a judgment of one hundred and ten
pages, dismissing it and disabling it.
36
00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:10.120
So far we greet the dismissed superintendent
of family allowance, Luis Guillermo Pérez.
37
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:15.520
Good morning, Dr Pérez, very
good morning, Daniel and first of all
38
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:21.639
July that I am not suspended for
corruption or sanctioned for corrupt. Corruption is
39
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:28.439
elsewhere. Well, Dr Perez,
let' s start over there for the
40
00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:32.159
reasons of your dismissal. The Attorney
General says you had no legal power to
41
00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:37.800
change the list of eligible persons to
management positions in the compensation boxes. Why
42
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:46.560
he did it, look Daniel.
It is not a legal occasion to establish
43
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:53.759
a chosen list. That has never
happened in the family allowance system in the
44
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:59.639
government went Duque, already when he
was leaving in a day before the President
45
00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:06.560
left set up a closed list under
the budget that a public call. Never
46
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:13.840
a public summons and the former and
superintendent has more faculties than the prostitute than
47
00:04:13.919 --> 00:04:18.639
mine and the law things are undone. As it simply makes you, I
48
00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:25.519
opened the list of democratic objects so
that many more people could apply for you
49
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:30.759
and, indeed, seventy- six
new people were linked in the possibility of
50
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:35.600
being appointed directors or agents of intervertion
of intervention boxes. Says the attorney general
51
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:42.800
' s office that you asked for
money from the compensation boxes monitored and controlled
52
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:46.160
by you to help the population of
bliss that money. You' re a
53
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:49.839
lawyer and I' m not a
lawyer, Doctor Perez, but I'
54
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:55.639
ve always heard that individuals can do
everything that the law doesn' t forbid
55
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:57.360
them, and officials can only do
what the law allows them to do.
56
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:01.959
What a rule of your ability to
ask for those contributions to the compensation boxes.
57
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:08.199
Okay. I believe that the prosecutor
does not know that we live in
58
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:11.240
a social state under the rule of
law. He does not know that article
59
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:15.600
ninety- two of the Constitution states
that all citizens of our country must defend
60
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:21.240
human rights. He is not aware
of article 22 of the Constitution, which
61
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:26.879
states that all persons in this country, whether natural or legal, must claim
62
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:30.079
peace as a right, but it
is also a social obligation, that is,
63
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:33.920
that any person must contribute to passion. For more reason he is a
64
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:39.079
public official and with more reason and
one is part of a government that is
65
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:46.920
profusing the pasta, a colloi one
can be foreign anywhere in the Colombian territory.
66
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:53.399
â How not to obey the agonizing
callâ Lario Jaranero excused. He
67
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:56.040
told me to help one hundred and
thirty- thirty change this truce. Local
68
00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:00.199
government does not contribute to departmental government. Neither does the national come with his
69
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:08.319
resources and I asked the funds voluntarily
in solidarity those that could contribute with Mr
70
00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:12.800
Ruben Dario the money that never happened
to go came directly to the social pastoral
71
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:19.000
of good fortune, for how they
can reproach him. Pro Recognize if you
72
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:24.600
are a praiseworthy initiative and then say
that this is among my public functions,
73
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.519
for of course yes, as the
system of your family study is going to
74
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:30.120
be alien to the peace of the
country, to respect for human rights in
75
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:35.079
Colombia, because the population of good
fortune is not also part of the family
76
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:42.720
subsidy system through its workers. Well, Dr Perez, but you don'
77
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:46.240
t find it clear that you couldn' t ask for any input, even
78
00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:48.680
for that noble cause, from the
entities vindicated by you. I want to
79
00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:54.839
give you an example. Imagine that
the Superintendent of Industry and Commerce calls the
80
00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:59.399
president of supermarkets successes, whose commercial
activity watches over him to ask him for
81
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:02.279
a talk to help poor children or
peace. If I am the success,
82
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:08.399
I have the right to think that
the entity, the institution that controls my
83
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:11.680
activity, is putting my hand in
my pocket beyond my legal obligations. You
84
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:16.199
don' t see it that way, not at all, and remember that
85
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:20.920
when the family allowance system has been
called upon to help solve tragedies like the
86
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:28.079
Armenian earthquake, such as the extremely
severe floods in Putumayo, no superintendents were
87
00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:34.839
discerned there disciplinaryly because they called the
boxes to show solidarity. So no.
88
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:42.879
This really has no constitutional or legal
basis. That reproaches the obligation of any
89
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:46.240
person in Colombia to contribute to respect
for human rights and peace. I insist
90
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:48.800
on it, and with more reason, he is only a public official.
91
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:56.439
So you can' t just pretend
to establish a twelve- year inability to
92
00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:00.600
restore me the way you' re
doing it, because, in solidarity with
93
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:05.120
a call that asked me to Monsignor
Rubén DarÃo? I insist on it distressing
94
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:09.800
to help save life, we save
in prison lives. A Mr Rubén DarÃo
95
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:13.360
has thus declared it before the Attorney
General' s Office. The directors of
96
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:18.079
the boxes have all stated that they
never felt compelled to contribute. Many even
97
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:22.879
went to declare that they did not
contribute because they had no resources to do
98
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:26.480
so. The family allowance system was
never affected because the resources for prosecutors of
99
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:31.279
four percent were not used. Those
who contributed did so through their wages or
100
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:39.080
employers who also contribute to the family
compensation funds. The system was never affected.
101
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.559
Quite the contrary, as several said
among others. There is therefore a
102
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.639
greater chance that there will be a
company and if there are more companies,
103
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:50.080
the system of family allowance will grow
more, because more contributions will reach the
104
00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:56.759
compensation funds. Okay, but,
Perez, let' s go now with
105
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.039
the alleged irregularities in the disciplinary process. Against you, why do you say
106
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:05.840
that this process cannot be initiated at
the request of the Attorney General, Margarita
107
00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:13.120
Cabello Blanco. Yes, there is
no complaint against me about any complaints from
108
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:20.480
anyone, any officials of the Superintendency, or any citizens. This originated or
109
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:26.279
petitioned by order of Margarita Cabello and
in friendly relations, as Adriana Guillén told
110
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:31.320
her, in front of officials of
the Superintendency, of her family study and
111
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:37.039
other people of her close friendship with
daisy hair. What has bothered them,
112
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:41.679
because it has bothered them that I
arrived in the system to remember that this
113
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:46.559
system does not belong to the directors
of the boxes, it does not belong
114
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.159
to political plans. It is a
system of all working families in Colombia,
115
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.159
which have an immense heritage that has
grown over more than sixty- five years.
116
00:09:56.799 --> 00:10:00.919
It bothered them that I asked more
than 100, 000 jobs and workers
117
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:05.519
who are in the decent low family
compensation boxes and signed a pact with the
118
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:09.679
Minister of Labour and with me the
nine vision of two thousand twenty- two.
119
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.600
It bothered them that I asked them
to sign a pact for early childhood
120
00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:18.399
and adolescence, so that our children
and young people in the long periods of
121
00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:24.120
vacation, could have cultural, playful, sporting, human and spiritual growth activities
122
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:30.000
through the great resources that family compensation
boxes have in those valley hours that are
123
00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:35.720
never used during the week in those
recreation centers. When I' m demanding
124
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:41.639
that through the school feeding program or
the complementary school day, no child endure
125
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:46.320
hunger, that bothers them, that
bothers them. That' s why they
126
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:50.240
work for me. This is all
unusual. Daniel, when you started your
127
00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:54.360
problems with the box president, Dr
Adriana Guitén, who is married to former
128
00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:58.200
attorney Edgardo Maya, why do you
say that that influenced the decision on her
129
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:05.519
with everything she always let me know
from the outset about that friendship relationship she
130
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:13.200
had with Margarita Cabello. She hinted
that I had to bend my head and
131
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:16.440
submit to what she wanted, because
she managed the system as she wanted and
132
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:22.320
you associate as she wanted and taking
advantage of that relationship with her husband,
133
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:28.840
Edgardo Maya and Margarita Cabello, ordered
this persecution against me. How it is
134
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:33.879
possible that in a month they have
practiced twenty- three testimonies, three or
135
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:37.360
four per day, as if I
had nothing else to do, as if
136
00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:46.039
my defense attorney had no other cases
to attend And when my defense attorney trusted
137
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:48.960
came to light to one testimony and
asked for it to be postponed please,
138
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:54.080
because he had been with his wife
until five in the morning in a clinic,
139
00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:56.440
he does not postpone it and when
he resigns he tells him that they
140
00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:00.240
want to stay the same five days
and I had to revoke the power in
141
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:01.840
solidarity so that he can go home. Or it' s not done.
142
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:07.440
And I defend my rights, not
so much because I am Luis Guillermo Pérez
143
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:13.200
Casas, I defend my rights as
a Colombian citizen, because this cannot be
144
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.080
allowed to happen to anyone in the
country. The supervisory body, such as
145
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:20.519
the Attorney General' s Office,
cannot be used and abused for personal or
146
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:28.879
partisan purposes. You claim, Dr
Perez, that you were put on the
147
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.120
line of attorney and office when this
resignation of your tenured attorney was filed.
148
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:37.200
The former private secretary of Attorney Eduardo
Maya was given legal counsel. Yes,
149
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:46.240
so I was named Fernando, Fernando
RodrÃguez Castro, who said that on a
150
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:50.399
weekend, very laudable on his part, what a great interest in contributing to
151
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:56.000
justice. One weekend he heard twenty- three testimonies. Over a weekend,
152
00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:01.360
more than a thousand leaflets were read
and then a diligence came to guarantee my
153
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:05.720
right to the defense, because yes, I congratulated him on that, but
154
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:07.399
at the same time I asked him
if it was true that he studied the
155
00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:13.080
file. He must have found a
testimony under the gravity of the oath,
156
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:18.960
which fairly established that Adriana Guillén,
Edgardo Maya Villa sol and Margarita Cabello had
157
00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:24.600
decided this persecution against me and he, having been a private secretary and close
158
00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:28.759
friend, Edgardo Maya Villazón, could
not, according to the lawyer' s
159
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:33.799
statute, accept that defense of his
own accord. Dr Pérez Uste has spoken
160
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:37.440
of several records in the decision-
making times of his process. Please briefly
161
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:45.440
mention some of those times that you
point to as a good record. First,
162
00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:52.480
the fact that when I have challenged
the number one prosecutor, Dr Yolanda
163
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:58.879
Reyes, the woman herself being challenged, Dr Reyes produces three cars in a
164
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:09.080
few hours, three cars one to, indeed accept that the ex officio lawyer,
165
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:15.279
Fernando Sánchez Castro, could not be
my lawyer. Secondly, in order
166
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:20.200
to close the debate on evidence,
although there was evidence in my favour for
167
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:22.360
its practice or that they had already
been decried, the law is very clear.
168
00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:26.759
The only one who can give up
the evidence that has already been decreed
169
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:30.159
is the adria party could not do
so. And thirdly, I end up
170
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:35.559
in ten days before the closing arguments
are filed. My lawyer. Finally,
171
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:41.320
I obtained MiguelÃngel del RÃo and
MiguelÃngel del RÃo as a trusted proxy
172
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:43.679
when they recognized his personality. It
is two days before the deadline, the
173
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:50.720
intimidating period, therefore, to submit
the closing arguments and despite his request that
174
00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:54.080
it be suspended in order to be
able to know the file, he was
175
00:14:54.120 --> 00:15:01.080
not given that opportunity. Then,
in a record time too the lady does
176
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:07.440
not accept Dr Yolanda Reyes does not
accept the challenge raised. He sends him
177
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:13.960
to the Deputy Attorney General of the
Nation to resolve the challenge and also sends
178
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:18.039
him to the disciplinary ward, a
disciplinary ward is made up of three persons.
179
00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:20.559
When a disciplinary chamber is established,
what is the rules of procedure for
180
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:26.720
the session? In two hours.
The disciplinary ward denies the challenge. On
181
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:31.559
Friday of the previous week, the
ten- day deadline for filing qualifiers was
182
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:39.159
completed. Present a tutelage this Monday
against such arbitrariness and I warned Dr Yolanda
183
00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:48.240
Reyes to wait for the ruling of
the constitutional judge before proceeding to sanction me.
184
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:52.720
As an adverse ruling against me was
rightly anticipated and he did not attend.
185
00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:58.279
I take it. It is possible
that I have issued a ruling just
186
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:03.919
as you have pointed out, day
and a half in a hundred and ten
187
00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:11.320
- page car and additionally prolongs my
suspension by another fifteen- page car for
188
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:14.960
three more months, among other things. I was already under an obligation to
189
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:18.480
return to my post in February of
this year and it did not because the
190
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:26.279
cause for which I was suspended had
disappeared. Well, a thousand thanks to
191
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:32.480
Luis Guillermo Pérez, superintendent of family
allowance, dismissed and disqualified for twelve years.
192
00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:37.039
A second distance, a guardianship action
and a criminal complaint are pending.
193
00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:41.799
We' ll see what for all
this. This was today' s Colonel
194
00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:41.600
report. Thank you very much.
