EUROPA PRESS: The Senate registers seven veto proposals and twenty amendments to the universal justice reform

MADRID, 6 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –

   The reform of universal justice has garnered seven veto proposals and twenty amendments in its processing in the Senate, where it will be approved in the coming days without foreseeable changes. If it comes out intact, It will be published in the Official State Gazette and will involve the filing of a dozen cases opened in the National Court.

   The PSOE, United Left, the PNV, ERC y la Entesa han interpuesto sus propuestas de veto al entender que el texto lanza un mensaje de impunidad y considerar un "escarnio" to dismiss ongoing investigations, like the Couso case or the Tibet genocide.

   El PSOE cree que envía "un mensaje de impunidad" a los responsables de "gravísimos" delitos contra la humanidad y critica la "atropelladísima" y "discutible" process followed by the reform, que ha reflejado de nuevo el "escaso respeto" del PP hacia el Parlamento y las "reglas del juego democráticas".

   For your part, la Izquierda Unida ve en la reforma "un retroceso en la lucha contra la impunidad" of these crimes, in the defense of human rights and in the application of Justice and remembers that many victims cannot access the International Criminal Court.

   In this same line, se pronuncia el PNV al destacar el "retorno al pasado y el gran paso atrás" that the initiative of the Popular Party entails. "La impunidad es un insulto a la conciencia democrática universal", nationalists point out, para añadir que la proposición adolece del "más mínimo rigor democrático".

INTROMISSION IN THE JUDICIAL POWER

   La Entesa ha presentado dos propuesta de veto por el carácter restrictivo y el mecanismo "inconstitucional" of the bill. In this sense, tacha de "escarnio" its retroactive application to close ongoing investigations.

   ERC recalls that Spain has assumed different international obligations that impose on it the duty to prosecute certain crimes of special gravity., which cancels the reform of the PP, which also excludes the appearance of the popular accusation to act in these procedures.

   ERC tilda de "intromisión intolerable" en el poder judicial que la reforma obligue a archivar los casos abiertos que no reúnen los nuevos requisitos y censura que "vulnera de forma flagrante" the principle of legal certainty.
