The Chamber of Deputies, while exercising the powers that all parliaments have in the democratic countries, has decided not to approve the start of prosecution against two of its members. For this decision, the deputies have taken political responsibility. If they were wrong, the electorate will be able to penalize them with the votes. Until then, they are all innocent until proven wrong. In other words, it is the task of those who accuse them to probe their bad faith.

That decision was political undoubtedly. This is the most one could expect from such a political forum. The members of the Parliament couldn’t probe the legality of the prosecutors’ requests regarding the dignitaries. As politicians, they could and had to ascertain whether the initiative of the prosecutors was somewhat political. If so, a moral and licit political decision had to end an attempt to political abuse.

What followed was a choir of reproaches against the Chamber of Deputies on the ground that it would have stopped the course of justice, that it would have covered corruption and have taken the blame away from the corrupt people. There couldn’t have been too many talks on the guiltiness of the accused ones in the Parliament. However, everyone blames the parliamentarians for something they obviously have not done.

Meanwhile, only a series of collective mistakes may explain why one thinks the spirit of justice is better served by prosecutors appointed by politicians than the ones appointed by the Executive Members elected directly by citizens.
