The chat about Deicy Jiménez must be clarified with due process

In EPM's view, this case must be resolved with due process and the presumption of innocence for all persons mentioned.

--- The context --- According to what was released, the case of Deicy Jiménez gained a new element: chats about her contractual placement. --- The facts --- Jiménez reported alleged sexual favors in exchange for contracts with the State during the Government of Gustavo Petro. That complaint is presented as attributed, with no judicial conclusion. --- The facts --- According to that information, Petro allegedly sent Angie Rodríguez, director of the Dapre, the file Deicyjimenez.pdf, with Jiménez's résumé. The disclosed message reads: "Esta persona necesita que la mantengan allí en el contrato mi interior (sic)", and the response attributed to Rodríguez allegedly was: "Perfecto señor Presidente (sic)". --- The positions --- A due-process reading stresses that the attributed chats do not, on their own, prove irregularity or confirm the complaint. It requires judicial verification and the presumption of innocence for everyone mentioned. --- The positions --- Fiscalía: criminal inquiry into possible irregularities at the Dapre, and forensic inspection of Jiménez's cell phone. Supreme Court: judicial inspection of her contracts in Congress. Procuraduría: preliminary inquiry against officials to be identified. --- What remains unknown --- No conclusions from those proceedings have been released. The chat, on its own, does not prove any irregularity: it must be verified judicially. --- Unanswered questions --- What will the forensic inspection of Jiménez's cell phone conclude? What contracts will the judicial inspection gather in Congress? Which officials will the Procuraduría's inquiry reach? --- EPM analysis --- What was released can be tested in proceedings. Until they rule, every attributed claim must remain conditional. 📌 EPM Take: In EPM's view, this case must be resolved with due process and the presumption of innocence for all persons mentioned. The attributed chat and Jiménez's complaint could be relevant, but they are not proven conclusions. Let the forensic inspection, the judicial inspection of the Supreme Court, and the proceedings of the Fiscalía and the Procuraduría speak, after full verification of what was disclosed, before any judgment about individual responsibility.
