There are now three people that the Civil Guard has arrested in relation to the altercations last Sunday in the Valencian town of Paiporta, one of the most affected by DANA, during the visit of the Kings, the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, and the president of the Generalitat, Carlos Mazón. All those arrested are residents of the area and none of them have links to ultra groups, according to sources close to the proceedings consulted by ABC, although it is not ruled out that new arrests may occur. The investigation of the Benemérita Information Service continues.

One of them, the first detainee, is already provisionally released after having been placed at the disposal of the Investigative Court number 3 of Torrent (Valencia).
