PRD state leader accuses of political persecution

While the governor of Veracruz, Cuitláhuac García Jiménez, regretted that the press and opposition politicians, especially the PRD, want to see the arrest as a “political persecution” of the former PRD federal representative Norma Azucena Rodríguez Zamora.
The capture, he said, is because she is accused of being the alleged person responsible for the murder of her ex-husband, the former PRD federal representative, Nicanor Martínez Olguín.
García Jiménez assured that political persecution is “a thing of the past”, as he insisted that with the State Attorney General’s Office there is no longer a “distinction” of citizens or public or political servants of various political currents.
“And nobody says that, the press does not comment on it. That the accused today, Norma N, was the wife of the late Nicanor … but they do say that it is political imprisonment, that there is persecution, what do we have to do with it? She is accused of murder, ” he said.
