The political tension that has been experienced in the last two days in the Congress of Deputies has taken to the streets this Thursday. Four socialist deputies were scolded early in the morning when they were having breakfast in a cafeteria near the Upper House before attending the second day of Pedro Sánchez’s investiture. According to police sources, the parliamentarians have received insults and eggs and a cup have been thrown at them by a group of between seven and eight people who have identified them as members of the PSOE. “Hang your head while I’m here, you fucking dog,” one of the assailants snapped at them, while another threatened them: “Disgusting, traitorous, they had to kill you.” Those affected are the Basque socialists Daniel Senderos Oraá and María Luisa García Gurrutxaga, the Valencian Vicent Sarrià Morell, and the Aragonese Herminio Rufino Sancho.
At least two of them, Senderos and García Gurrutxaga, as well as one of the police officers who came to protect them, were hit by eggs and coffee stains that were thrown at them. Seven alleged attackers were identified by the Police, but their arrest has not been made. The PSOE will file the subsequent complaint, as explained in the socialist party. All those identified are men between the ages of 31 and 31.
The events occurred shortly after the four parliamentarians left the hostel near the chamber where they had spent the night to have breakfast at the El Barografía cafeteria-restaurant, at number 10 Calle del Príncipe. Once inside, the deputies were harassed by a group of customers of the establishment who, at the same time, recorded them with their mobile phones. Given the fear caused by the insults and threats, one of the victims telephoned the National Police agents who had been escorting them these days as part of the security plan put in place to prevent incidents during the investiture.
The PP points to PSOE deputies
Upon arriving at the premises, the police were able to see how a group of between seven and eight people were insulting the parliamentarians for having identified them as members of the socialist party. According to police sources, none of them carried flags or symbols that identified them with any ideology. However, given the aggressive and violent attitude of all of them and the fear that a physical attack could occur, the bodyguards decided to remove the deputies from the premises. However, once outside, the group continued to berate the deputies while throwing eggs and coffee at them. The insults were also directed against the agents, at whom they shouted “dogs of the State.” A police officer had to stop one of the attackers when he was apparently going to hit the parliamentarians. The agents then chose to quickly transfer the deputies within the security control that surrounds Congress these days.
