The president of the National Council of Drugs, Marino Vinicio (Vincho) Castillo said on his TV program "La Repuesta" that some Supreme Court of Justice judges respond to "determined political-party interests that serve international organized crime forces." He was referring to declarations of President of the Court, Jorge Subero Isa who on the day of the opening of the Escuela Nacional de la Magistratura, the school where judges will be trained, sustained that only those that oppose the transformation and creation of a new judicial order because they know that only in a justice covered with soot will they be successful. He said that the past conduct of many Supreme Court judges is questionable, not for their lack of honesty nor capacity, but for having provided their professional services to non-clear causes. Vincho Castillo also referred to the legal case between the Smith-Enron power plant and the Hotelera Moya company. The hotel company’s Bayside Inn resort in Costambar was forced to close due to pollution created by the installation of the power plant nearby. Castillo said that who has been named the new director of the Escuela Nacional de la Magistratura, whose office represents Smith-Enron in the case with Moya, had submitted as candidates to arbitrage on the case four notable lawyers that later became judges of the Supreme Court of Justice. He says that in view of this situation, the hotel company could sue the Smith-Enron power plant in a U.S. court, which he considers would be a defeat for the country if in the US it is known that there is traffic of influences, extorsion and pressure against an arbiter, judge of the same Supreme Court of Justice. He criticized that some of the judges are former lawyers who were at the service of powerful interests. He said he has not insulted the Supreme Court of Justice, just said that he feels working lawyers should not be judges, because even if they do the right things, they will always be suspect. Lawyers are very vulnerable, he said. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
