The head of the Court of Instruction number 3 of Catarroja, which centralizes the proceedings of the DANA, has shown some of its letters in a order notified this Thursday to the Prosecutor’s Office and the seven particular accusations personally, for the moment, in the case. In the section in which she details the facts, in just nine lines, the magistrate expresses her first conclusions after the first statements of witnesses and relatives of the deceased: verifies the “ignorance” of the situation of “very high risk” by The victims on October 29, the day of the Barrancada catastrophic. In addition, the resolution also reviews the typology of victims: elderly people who remained in the low floors of their homes and people who circulated down the street or who went down to the garages to try to remove their cars.
Although the car is brief, typical of an initial phase of the instruction, it also provides some clues. “The message sent at 8:11 pm urged to avoid displacements. Part of the victims of advanced age perished in their own homes. ” In a couple of phrases, it slides two keys: the text of the automatic message to the mobile That the citizens take refuge in upper plants) and then the magistrate apostille that the older victims died on the low floors of their own homes.
The judge seems to have a certain approach to the case; A channeling as a prolegomenon of an instruction that seems long and complex. And it is no stranger to the effects of the ravine: without going any further the headquarters of the Catarroja courts was razed by the flood. It is based, for the moment, on what the victims and survivors have told him, to which the magistrate has been doing the process of offering actions. Thus, the resolution states that “it is convenient to analyze not only if the appropriate measurements of the Rambla del Poyo flow (…) or not, by those responsible for emergencies through technical means, but also if the simple perception Direct of any person close to the Rambla of the intensity of overflow could allow their further knowledge by those responsible for emergencies as the flow increased. ”
To the numerous videos on social networks on the afternoon of October 29 on the brutal effects of the flood, the detailed live coverage of à Punt, the Valencian regional television is added. When the automatic alert rang on the à Punt’s set, the chain broadcast live how a pedestrian rescued a woman trapped by the force of water, an image that serves as an audiovisual metaphor of the uselessness of a notice that came manifestly late, when They had already disappeared.
In addition, the judge not only focuses on the system is alert and her late remission at 20.11. The car explains that the “analysis of the avoidability” of the 76 deaths that occurred in the Judicial Party of Catarroj Mass message to mobile phones, “if the population was communicated by other means previously” during “all day” October 29, “whether through press conferences, public statements or official communications to the media, so as the evolution of the meteorological circumstances of that day. ”
No one escapes that, around 13.00, President Carlos Mazón assured in a controversial appearance, whose video was subsequently erased from his official X account, that the emergency had practically ended. Shortly after he went to eat at the El Ventorro restaurant, where he left after 18.00 in the afternoon.
The car asks RTVE, à Punt, Atresmedia, Mediaset and the Poor Contradictions of the then Minomé Pradas Minister on automatic alerts. Pradas was caught lying in respect in a manifest way.
“New non -extendable term” to the Consell
The instructor also urges the Department of Emergencies and Interior to report specifically on who – in concrete, with name and surname – “made the decision” to issue the alert at 20.11. A very clear and seemingly simple question to which the department directed by Juan Carlos Valderrama “does not answer” in his previously sent report. And this even though the judge requested in a car on December 5.
The long report of the Emergency Department is limited to indicating two sections that, ultimately, do not explain anything at all. “It is not answered therefore interested in this court,” says the judge. Although without too much vehemence – other judges would have mounted in anger, and rightly – the magistrate gives a “new non -extendable term” of five days to the Ministry to “proceed to the timely response” to what she agreed in her car (whose whose compliance, obviously, it is not optional or volunteer for anyone). The instructor is therefore waiting to verify whether, at the second attempt, the Consell is finally worthwhile to respond without surroundings.
The car refers to the communications of the Júcar Hydrographic Confederation (CHJ) on the measurements of the Poyo ravine and the “interval” between two messages referred between 16.13 and 18.42 (what Mazón and the PP call the “informative blackout” of the central government).
However, the judge also refers to the press release of the CHJ on February 4 (referred to deny an incomplete audio recorded to the president of the entity, Miguel Polo) in which it is explained that the automatic system of hydrological information (SAIH) was working and transmitting updated data every five minutes. So the judge asks the CHJ “the integrity of said data” in that period between 16.13 and 18.42, as well as the “concretion of the medium used of transmission.”
On the other hand, it should be remembered that Generalitat Valenciana herself recognized hours before the Dana, in an internal note of a high regional position revealed by Eldiario.es on November 25, that the monitoring of rivers and ravines was also her responsibility. In addition, the Generalitat also removed forest firefighters that measured the flow of the Poyo ravine.
