“The list of people we are applying for public office has been submitted to an international organization that conducts research on people’s reputation, in the case of him (Julio César Santos Tobar) there was no negative response, even we had the opportunity to meet him a few weeks ago and he seems like a normal person, no one told us about his brother either, “said Nasralla, a presidential candidate for the Salvadoran Honduras Party.
“He (Juli Cèsar Sants Tobar) contacted the PSH secretariat and said that this Wednesday he will submit his resignation in writing to the National Electoral Council (CNE) and will be replaced by the party. I think this gentleman has a good behavior, but his brother is different, when one investigates someone does not usually inquire about his brothers, “the political leader added.
