Lilly Téllez, senator of the Republic presented a bill to impose sanctions on all politicians who have complicity with drug traffickers.
Whether they facilitate, protect, collaborate, provide information, resources, etc. to members of criminal groups, they could even be subjected to political trial.
The Senator from Acción Nacional proposes adding Article 123 Bis to the Federal Penal Code so that any politician can be sentenced from five to forty years if they commit treason against the country.
These sanctions will also include that any public servant who incurs in these sanctions be removed and permanently disqualified from holding public office in the country.
"People prosecuted or sentenced for this crime will be transferred to a maximum-security penitentiary, where special security measures will be applied both during preventive detention and in the execution of the sentence."
If accepted, it will have to go through committees before being considered by all senators in full and its possible approval.
