MADRID, 17 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Investigating Court number 24 of Madrid has summoned the Government delegate in Madrid, Mercedes González, for next February 10, to testify for the alleged commission of a crime of prevarication within the framework of a complaint filed by the Association for Reconciliation and Historical Truth.

This is stated in a car, to which Europa Press had access, in which the judge calls the delegate to testify that day at eleven in the morning after the scheduled appearance last Friday was suspended.

In this same resolution, the Court opposes the request of the State Attorney to file the case, an end on which it will rule once the defendant makes a statement.

“On July 14, that is, one day after the rally called by the complainant association, the government delegation became aware of another rally of an association that defended the new Law of Democratic Memory and which was held, without any limitations. nor restriction, in the pedestrian zone of the Cortes, just in front of the Congress of Deputies (place, it should be remembered, where the one of the complainant Association should have been held, “explains the text.
