César Jáuregui's strong message before being arrested: "I would do it again, it was unforgivable to be omission and lukewarm"

Before being detained, former prosecutor of Chihuahua César Jáuregui said that "he would do it again" because it would have been unforgivable to be "silent and lukewarm". Days before his arrest, the former prosecutor of Chihuahua, César Jáuregui, spread a message on social media in which he assured that he is "firm" and stated: "they will not bend me". In the video, he also maintained that he assumed "total responsibility" for the operation in which two CIA agents died in Morelos, Chihuahua, in April of this year. ADVERTISEMENT The message was published on his Facebook account with the phrase: "For the PAN and for Chihuahua, to the fullest!". "Ever stronger attacks will come" Jáuregui began the message speaking "face to face" with his sympathizers and warned that "the hardest stage" is approaching to consolidate the political project that, he said, has united many people from Chihuahua. He assured that "the future of our capital and that of our party, the PAN", is at stake, and anticipated that "ever harder attacks" will come against him, his work, and his team. According to him, whoever has not been able to "win the hearts of the people" is capable of resorting to any means to achieve their goals. Assumes "total responsibility" for El Pinal The former prosecutor referred to the events that occurred in El Pinal, which, he claimed, made it clear that "narcotics are fought in Chihuahua". He recalled that at that time he assumed total responsibility and that is why he presented his resignation. ADVERTISEMENT Jáuregui maintained that, if he had to decide again, he would dismantle the narcotics laboratory in Morelos, as he considered that what was truly unforgivable would have been being "silent and lukewarm" in the face of organized crime. He also affirmed having "perfectly clear" that there is no crime on his part and that if the federation or the state impose any responsibility on him, he is "ready to assume it with pride". "No one will make me feel out of place in my own home" On the political level, Jáuregui assured that he is not in the project "for a position", that he will not change his convictions and that he will not make agreements "behind the backs" of those who have built the project. Furthermore, he addressed those who, according to him, feel pressure from power: - Their dignity "comes first" and their work "deserves respect". - "No one should have to attend an event for fear of losing their job." - No one should have to choose between their peace of mind and their right to express an opinion. A call to PAN militancy Jáuregui asked for "serenity and trust" and promised to be "a leader up to the circumstances". He affirmed that the project "continues to grow" because its purpose "is sincere" and said he wanted the militancy and the citizens to be heard, without impositions. ADVERTISEMENT He invoked the history of Chihuahuan Panism and mentioned Manuel Gómez Morín, Luis H. Álvarez, Carlos Chavira, Memo Luján, Carlos Aguilar Camargo, Enrique Terrazas, Pancho Barra, and Francisco Villarreal, whom he called the "lighthouse" of the movement. He concluded with a phrase: "Having character is to keep calm and remain firm when pressures arrive", and reiterated: "I will not let go". Context of the case The message was spread days before the former prosecutor's arrest, in the context of the investigations into the April operation in Morelos, where two CIA agents died. The case has opened a political debate in Chihuahua and at the national level.
