And while Cervantes continues to play it cagey on that issue, today the man who is suing him didn't want to play any games about the pending libel suit. We caught up with Deputy Prime Minister Gaspar Vega at an event outside Orange Walk and he said the matter is in the hands of his attorney:..
Hon. Gaspar Vega, Deputy Prime Minister
"Rodwell Williams already sent the letter, so there is very little that I can say. It's in his hands and I have said what I had to say and I would like we just leave it there."
Reporter
"Do you think it was irresponsible for Mr. Cervantes to do this along with the media houses that broadcasted the event?"
Hon. Gaspar Vega, Deputy Prime Minister
"Like I've said, I had said what I had to say. The rest the attorney will take care of it."
Reporter
"Do you think this has affected you politically?"
Hon. Gaspar Vega, Deputy Prime Minister
"No I don't think so, alright."
Jules Vasquez
"From a political perspective, are you threaten by Ramon "Monchie" Cervantes? I know I ask you this before, but things have change. I have to ask you again."
Hon. Gaspar Vega, Deputy Prime Minister
"No, it has not changed."
Later on you'll hear what Cervantes has to say about whether he'll use his murder conspiracy narrative for political mileage when he faces Vega in a general election.
