The PSOE of Sant Antoni has demanded this Wednesday the “immediate” dismissal of the head of the Local Police after the broadcast of a television report that, according to the party, places him “collaborating directly with the practices of the company Desokupa“.
The complaint arises from images that, according to the socialists, show their participation in an allegedly illegal eviction in the municipality.
An eviction that stirs controversy
The program in question, broadcast last Friday on La Sexta, reveals that the head of the Local Police of Sant Antoni was present during an eviction carried out by Desokupa, a company dedicated to the recovery of occupied properties. According to the PSOE, this fact represents a “violation of the law” and demonstrates the “connivance of the police chief with practices outside the rule of law”.
The municipal socialist group considers it “extremely serious” that a police commander “acts in collusion with groups that operate outside the legal framework, intimidating citizens and violating their fundamental rights”. In his opinion, the involvement of the head of the local police in these events not only damages the image of the police force, but also affects the reputation of Sant Antoni at a national level.
They demand immediate action
From the PSOE have criticized the lack of response from the government team, which they accuse of not having taken action against the revelations of the report. In this regard, they demand that the City Council immediately dismiss the head of the Local Police and open an internal investigation to clarify what happened.
“The image of our municipality is at stake,” they have warned, stressing that “the City Council must act with transparency and forcefulness to ensure respect for legality and confidence in local institutions.”
For the moment, the Consistory of Sant Antoni has not issued an official response to the PSOE’s request, nor has it clarified whether it will take any action regarding the head of the Local Police.
