The crisis in Ceuta adds an investigation into complaints against soldiers and a court order against a camp
Political developments in Spain once again centered on Ceuta, with a decision by the National Court that provisionally halted a migrant transfer and the announcement of an official inquiry into alleged assaults. There were also new developments in the Kitchen case and in the controversy over a property linked to the Madrid regional government.
The situation in Ceuta once again drew political attention in Spain. According to eldiario.es, the National Court ordered the temporary suspension of the new camp planned to transfer 1,000 migrants from El Trampolín beach to temporary reception places at the Ceuta port.
According to that outlet, officials at Moncloa admitted their bewilderment at a ruling that, in their view, blocks an immediate operational solution on the ground.
At the same time, the government announced that it will open an investigation into complaints of assaults and humiliation attributed to soldiers in Ceuta by dozens of migrants, as reported by eldiario.es.
The day also brought new developments in the Kitchen case. Again according to eldiario.es, new audio recordings emerged that implicate Mariano Rajoy’s PP. In one of them, Commissioner Villarejo tells Cospedal: “You make the driver of Bárcenas a national police officer and he can no longer speak.”
In addition, decisions were expected regarding the penthouse associated with Madrid regional president Isabel Díaz Ayuso. eldiario.es noted that the envelopes with possible offers for the Chamberí property were to be opened and that the Madrid regional minister of the presidency was due to appear before the Assembly to explain the home purchased by the public company Planifica Madrid.
