Deputy Luis Pardo (RN) sparked a political debate by comparing two cases that have marked the public agenda. In his statements, Pardo indicated that the situation of Carlos Steinert, former regional secretary (seremi) of Public Works, presents "probably more merit" for facing a Constitutional Accusation than that of the former Minister of Education, Marco Antonio Ávila. This assertion comes within a context where both figures have been under scrutiny by the opposition.
