Qué interesante

Manuel Barrera, the councillor in San Fulgencio who is being investigated for corruption, says that he was "stitched up". He claims that the video which was used to incriminate him was a fake.

Barrera says that if you examine the video frame by frame you can see that the voices do not match up with the pictures. He says that the audio was taken from conversations that he has had over the last five moths. These have been patched over the video to implicate him. In Barrera's opinion, Trinidad Martínez and Mariano Martí were the ones who plotted against him to discredit his position.

Barrera goes on to say that he is going to fight to clear his name during next the three years and then win his seat again in the next elections.

Just who is telling the truth and who is lying will obviously take some sorting out. As my father used to say, "they all p*** in the same pot". Time will tell whether in this case he would have been right.
