The public money is washed electorally
México. - The presidential candidate of the coalition Progressive Movement in the last presidential election, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO), it presented last Wednesday (7/18/12), to the Electoral Tribunal of the Judicial Power of the Federation (TEPJF, in Spanish), and to the opinion public information documented on operations with resources of illicit origin to distribute dozens of millions of dollars in the painting of the campaign of their rival of PRI, Enrique Peña Nieto (EPN). Such information adds to the accusation that had already presented the PAN against the tri-colored one for the dispersion of money, by means of the company Monex and plastic Monex Card, in a parallel accounting to the one declared to the Electoral Federal Institute (IFE).

The above-mentioned is added to the petition of the disability’s election of the first one of July by the massive operations of purchase of votes that it is accused the PRI, and for the conditions of inequity mediatic in that the political campaigns were developed. In accordance with the documents diffused by AMLO, Monex was rewarded with more than 6.7 million dollars for the companies Inizzio and Efra, those that in turn that money of a physical person and three moral people received: the particular Rodrigo Fernandez Noriega and the companies Atama, Koleos and Tiguan. It highlights the fact that Koleos and Tiguan were constituted the same day -September 8, 200 -, before the same public notary, situation that repeats with Inizzio and Atama. Significantly, the fiscal homes of the signatures in question turned out to be nonexistent.

The public money are washed electorally
The referred information constitutes, of entrance, an overwhelming disqualification of the purposes enunciated by the administration of -mentioned Calderon when Department of House was named Alejandro Poire - of preventing that illicit resources flowed to the political campaigns, as well as of the capacity inspector of the Ministry of Treasury (SHCP), and of the Specialized office for the Attention of Electoral Crimes (Fepade) and of the General Attorney's office of the Republic (PGR) in their group. Also, the revelations put in evidence a serious lack of the IFE, in the measure in that it was unable to supervise irregular financings that should have been detected from the beginning.

The commented revelations place to the Calderon’s administration in the peremptory obligation of to investigate and to consign who corresponds for the planning and execution of the cloudy triangulations by means of those which Monex and the other involved companies they would have operated as channels of distribution of money in the campaign of EPN and in the election, in this supposition we expose that, more than 9 thousand cards of Monex they were distributed among operators of the PRI, polling-booth’s stall representatives and their coordinators, with balances of between one thousand and one thousand 333 dollars in each card, and to determine the origin of the economic funds.

Condemned tribunal
We can put suddenly in the mud’s table the raw exhibition electoral with an authoritarian parade of fashions, a sample of the catalog of the six year-old future, and of the confession of the two right parties interwoven to press to the Tribunal that already in itself it is favorable to the line of the PRI-EPN creating an obscene scene full with complicities strengthened in Los Pinos residence that they have believed that they should cancel to the eyes of the citizens any electoral hope, so much in the exercise of the votes in the polling-booths as for the juridical paths of correcting and of later accusations that could have. This political blow was carried out at the same time that the electoral packages were received for federal objections, without keeping the form and the political bottom. At the 18 hours in that the political opponent is refuting the result of the elections, it was presented to the press to present new overwhelming tests of the mentioned fraud, and the Corregidor's involved total of Videgaray, renovating the millionaires scandals due to the Corregidor's retirements bank personal.

In this presentation AMLO postponed to present its leaf of combat route, he stayed in certain measure more data, and he went to contrast of that waited. With all these tests accumulated in the juridical file and denounced in their opportunity, one can only expect good will that they will be able to be assisted without watchword and unconscious just for the federal electoral tribunal. All worlds know it and the tests are overwhelming, EPN has obtained its victory tossing hand of the criminal resource of laundry of money. It is a serious accusation that they should accept as much the electoral authorities as the government ones, to act in consequence or in their case they accept to be as accomplices of the crime and be susceptible of penal accusation, and to be prosecuted by the Interamerican court.

On the other hand, the documentation of the case puts to the TEPJF before the alternative of declaring valid the presidential election of the one of July, knowingly that in its serious crimes could be made and in its case to not only invalidate it for the properly electoral irregularities denounced previously, but also because the official results could have been configured, in some measure, by means of practices that could be described as laundry of money of illicit origin. The institutionalize in its group is, locked in a delicate circumstance that can be solved only for the full clarification of the denounced facts, with all that implies it, or for a concealment maneuver that would deeply in irreparable form the one of for itself same erosion base of credibility of the involved public organisms.
