“It is what it is known in the doctrine of the Right like the fruit of the prohibited tree: everything what produces that test is null of all invalidity”, argues the legal adviser of William Saud, Tony Tovar, the main reason for which at first moment the mining leader and Carlos Chancellor did not have to be condemned.

Protected in numeral 1 of article 49 of the Constitution, Tovar exposes that when a test is illegal, all judgment or reason that is come off her it does not have to be considered at the time of the sentence of a judge.

The defender talks about to the audio one of a recording of the 6 of September of 2005, secondly day of the protests of Saud, Chancellor and miners before the contractual breach of the transnational Crystallex.

He recounts Tovar that the expert of the National Guard Bolivariana who transcribed the audio one affirmed that oía the voice of Carlos Chancellor, that called to the town to close the route and to mobilize itself against the troopses.

He emphasizes Tovar several aspects: first, that this test was considered in the judgment like ““total” indiciaria” and not, consequently legal value was reduced to him; secondly that the voice of the audio one - attributed to Chancellor- it does not correspond to the defendant “are two timbres (of voice), are different emphases”, nor was verified in the litigation; consequently the judicial process had to be annulled.

Pending causes
Tovar emphasizes, which had to take 10 days became months of silence. Such affirmation corresponds to the annulment resource that Saud introduced the 10 of December before the declaration without place of the appeal that introduced a year ago.

“This is not only one political question, but a corruption”, affirms Tovar, that limits that before Saud and Chancellor were imputed to incite to break the law, to close public thoroughfares, agavillamiento and to create panic and sink the colectivity, Crystallex already had accused them (2004) of numerous losses when preventing the free route to the transport to workers and loaded trucks of auriferous material.

According to Tovar, this cause did not follow because of to have been processings Saud and Chancellor the possibility that had been abierto the company obtained enormous amounts of gold with machines and not by artisan route, with miners.

Saud is story sometimes previous that the annoyance with Crystallex came when failing to fulfill the transnational one with the creation of 4 thousand positions of use. (LSM)
