The general secretary of PPCuca Gamarra, has demanded that the second vice president of the Government and leader of Sumar, Yolanda Diaz, explain How long did you know about the complaints? anonymous by sexual harassment against the one who until this Thursday was the spokesperson for the coalition in Congress, Íñigo Errejón, after “many people” said on social networks that they “knew it for a long time.”
Gamarra has assured that Díaz, as “most responsible” for Sumar’s part in the Government coalition, You have to appear and detail “how long did you know”because if he was aware of these events “for a year”, far from denouncing them, they would have covered them up and even promoted Errejón by appointing him as spokesperson in the Lower House.
«If this was known throughout the world on the left, for more than a year, if we are learning that there have been conversations with victims by leaders or leaders’ circles to cover up all this, this has maximum severity», he stated in an interview on Telecinco’s ‘La Mirada Crítica’, collected by Europa Press.
Gamarra’s statements take place after the former vice president of the Government and former leader of Podemos, Pablo Iglesias, confessed last night in statements on the TVE program ’59 seconds’ that of Errejón’s alleged sexual abuse “it has been talked about for a year”.
Errejón announced this Thursday his resignation from his seat and his decision to abandon institutional politics due to mental health and emotional problems. Shortly after, Sumar reported that he had opened a process to gather information in response to online accusations against him about inappropriate behavior with women.
In fact, the actress Elisa Mouliáa denounced hours later in a message on social networks that it is “victim of sexual harassment” by Errejón: “Hello, I am a victim of sexual harassment by Íñigo Errejón and I want to report it,” the actress wrote in X.
Gamarra was unaware of the facts
In another vein, Gamarra has expressed his condemnation of “all those attitudes and facts” that Errejón seems to “assume” with his resignation. Furthermore, he has assured that he had “no knowledge of absolutely anything”, and that he only had a formal relationship with Sumar’s former spokesperson in Congress because they coincided in the chamber, but that he was not part of either his party or his political environment. .
He has also regretted “the little truth there is in left-wing politics”, citing a fragment of the statement with which Errejón announced his retirement and in which he said that he could no longer handle the contradiction between “the character and the person.” In his opinion, the Spanish deserve “a policy that is based on the truth, and that is based on what is authentic.”
Asked if the PP has a protocol for these cases, the general secretary of the ‘popular’ party responded yes. “If any complaint is received or any information is known, it is activated internally and from there the decisions that need to be made are made,” he detailed.
