A total of 238 corrupt projects were discovered, causing many — including Aramayo — to voice their disapproval of Nemesia only being processed for one charge.
“We ask the Public Prosecutor to expand the charges of Ms. Nemecia Achacollo from one case to 238 case, for the crimes of economic behavior and dereliction of duty,” Aramayo said.
Former Deputy of the Movement to Socialism (MAS) Román Loayza also commented on the matter, saying that though Nemesia Alchacollo still has the protection of the government, the cases should be investigated objectively.
“As minister she was directly involved with the great corruption of Fondioc” he said. “Therefore, it should be investigated coolly. It cannot continue being covered up.”
