Interamerican Court of Human Rights caught conspiring against justice and Venezuela http://axisoflogic.com/artman/publish/Article_58983.shtml

The court itself handed over the incriminating tape of the magistrates to the team defending VenezuelaSaltrón stated, “They flagrantly violated their own rules and without waiting to hear the arguments from both parties, started planning the verdict.” He also explained that the audio tape where the deliberations of the magistrates can be clearly heard was handed over to the defense team of the Venezuelan state in error by the Court.

Saltrón explained that for administrative reasons the Court hands over recordings of the hearings to both parties, “but they gave us the recordings of the judges’ deliberations which took place after the first hearing ended,” he added. He confirmed that the defense team almost jumped in surprise when they heard the whole tape which is about 35 minutes long. The voices of the President of the Court, Cecilia Medina Quiroga (Chile) and the Judge Sergio Ramírez García (Mexico) can be clearly heard.

Saltrón recalled that after the first and only hearing in this case which took place in Santo Domingo in 2004, the magistrates informed the parties that they required more information from both sides and in order to give a verdict would need up to four months.But the tape demonstrates that the magistrates did not wait for the lapse of time they themselves had ruled upon and to make things even worse, the tape proves that they conspired right after the hearing to issue a verdict against Venezuela. They did not wait for the evidence they had requested and simply ignored the two months granted to the parties to complete their presentations.

Saltrón declared:“They started forming the verdict without waiting for either party to present their conclusions two months later….If we listen to the complete recording which lasts 35 minutes, everything they say and establish in the conversation is exactly what they put in the verdict. There is no difference.”He compared what was said in the deliberations by the judges with the ruling in the verdict published on November 30th 2009 which inexplicably favored General Usón.Saltrón concluded, “This is a total violation of the right to defense by the magistrates of the Human Rights Court, which in itself has a solemn duty to perform.”
