A court in Valencia has opened an investigation into what happened during the official visit to Paiporta of the kings, the president of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, and that of the Generalitat, Carlos Mazón. The four were booed, mud and objects were thrown at them, and the chief executive had to be evacuated after a stick was thrown at him.
According to La Sexta, it is the Court of Instruction number 3 of Torrent that has opened a procedure for three crimes: attack, public disorder and damage. Sources from the Civil Guard consulted by Europa Press have confirmed that the report has been sent to a court.
The Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, expressed this Monday morning in an interview his confidence that the Information Service of the Civil Guard would soon identify the “violent minority” who beat the President of the Government and threw objects and mud against the delegation of authorities led by the Kings in Paiporta (Valencia).
In his opinion, there was a “minimum of organization” among those who carried out the altercations, although Marlaska did not want to confirm the connection of members or groups of the extreme right with this incident, pending the development of the investigation.
Marlaska specified, in an interview on TVE collected by Europa Press, that the Information Headquarters of the Civil Guard “is investigating from minute one” and “in a decisive manner”, confirming that Sánchez “received a blow.”
Regarding why it was agreed to evacuate the President of the Government, Marlaska answered that “for obvious security reasons” and not at Sánchez’s own request, but rather “it was decided by his security group, because there was a real and obvious risk,” since that “he had even already received a blow that is totally objectified.”
The head of the Interior has detailed that the evacuation of the delegation in Paiporta was “very difficult”, as “everyone could observe or verify”, but that thanks to the “professionalism” of the entire security system deployed by the Casa Real – at the head of the device -, together with the support services of the Civil Guard, “prevented” these “absolutely condemnable events of violent marginals” from ending in “worse consequences.”
