The Electoral Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) supervised this Thursday the progress of the survey carried out on all electoral material “of evidentiary value recorded in physical or digital” related to the presidential elections held in Venezuela on July 28.

The president of the Electoral Chamber and of the highest court in the country, Caryslia Rodríguez, explained that “the supervision and control of the expert review process of the material that is available to this judicial body and in the custody of the National Electoral Council was carried out in person by this Electoral Chamber”, registered by the electoral body, the political organizations and the participating former candidates.

He said that the expertise is being executed by a group of experts in electoral matters, “with the highest national and international technical and scientific standards, guaranteeing the highest level of technical and legal excellence, which will be done directly personally and daily throughout the process.”

Rodríguez noted that the process is carried out “in accordance with articles 7, 12 and 14 of the Code of Civil Procedure, applicable to the present case by express reference to article 98 of the Organic Law of the Supreme Court of Justice, in use of its broadest investigative powers in the search for truth and justice.”

As a third point, he stressed that once the expert review process has been completed, in the peremptory time established previously by the Electoral Chamber of the Supreme Court, “with these objective facts proven and certified, a final judgment will be issued on the contentious electoral appeal” filed by President Nicolás Maduro.

“I consider it appropriate to reiterate the commitment and the will to the Venezuelan people to impart justice, so that nothing will stop us in our sacred mission,” concluded the president of the Supreme Court.
