The senator and national president of the PRI, Alito Moreno, has strongly hit Gerardo Fernández Noroña at the end of the session in the Senate with the song of the national anthem on the afternoon of Wednesday. The videos of the session show that the president of the Upper House defends the shoves, but only receives more blows. He has also charged a collaborator from Noroña, the cameraman Emiliano González González, to whom the medical services placed a collar minutes later.
Moreno and Noroña had already sustained a discussion a few moments before, when the first one went up to the gallery to claim the president that he had not let him participate. Alito rebuked her with her index finger and Noroña said: “Don’t touch me.” But the senator returned to his seat, to leave him at the end of the session and return to the presidency table. He endured to sing the anthem and then the strong confrontation occurred: Moreno pushed and punching the president of the Senate, who took steps back to dodge the aggressions.
In the middle of the struggle, he was about to fall, and the cameraman Emiliano González González was demolished and reached by the blows of Alito And from another PRI, Carlos Gutiérrez Mancilla, who advanced and taking advantage of the struggle, hit the president of the Senate and González, while some legislators tried to separate them. The deputy of Morena, Dolores Padierna, wanted to intervene, but had to depart to avoid being reached by blows. In the Senate, shouts were heard for the fight to cease.
The session, which was later described by Noroña as “a hard debate”, rose in tune when Lilly Téllez took the gallery for, where he called for the United States to provide “help” to Mexico in the fight against organized crime. The PAN said to have “a clean trajectory” in the face of what she called “brunette mafia”, and said that her confidence in God and citizenship gave her strength to “shake the tyrants of the tyrants of the morenarcos”.
Téllez promised that he would continue defending Mexico, which lit the mood. Both the PRI and the PAN supported her, while she called Narcopolitics y NARCOSATANICS To the morenistas. The officials responded to shouts of “traitor” and “vessel”.
After the episode, Noroña has explained at a press conference that the PRI requested an intervention, which was denied by the assembly, so it ended the session. “Then I started pulling, to touch, push. Which confrontation? He hit me and said ‘I’m going to leave the mother, I’m going to kill you.” Noroña and his collaborator will file complaints about the aggressions and damages caused to the cameraman, the president said. Noroña made reference to his age, 65 years, and the youth and physical formation of his aggressor, and has repeated that he did not begin the fight, but the PRI.
In another press conference, Moreno has accused Noroña’s “cowardice”, arguing that he pushed him because he had misbehaved with a woman, a senator there. “With that if you are very man,” he has recriminated. But the truth is that the anger came from before and a very aggressive Alito has been seen.
