Open war between Loreto Arenillas, the sacked Más Madrid deputy and the leadership of his party. In a new statement, the former chief of staff of Íñigo Errejón once again “denied” the Madrid party and said that the party leadership “did not consider relevant” the events reported by a woman in Castellón in 2023.
The former representative of Más Madrid in the Assembly, Lorette Arenillas, who was chief of staff of Íñigo Errejón, announced that she would report to the Guarantees Commission of Más Madrid “the abuse of power” that the executive would have committed against her and does not rule out resorting to the justice.
This was expressed in a letter on his social networks after the joint press conference of the three co-spokespeople of the formation, Mónica García, Manuela Bergerot and Rita Maestre, this Monday where they limited political responsibilities to Arenillas, ruled out further resignations and assured that she was acting “turning her back” on the organization.
“In the coming hours I will file a formal complaint for serious violation of the statutes before the Guarantees Commission of Más Madrid, which I hope will be activated quickly and operate independently. without giving up going to court”reports Loreto Arenillas, who said that on Friday the party leadership spread “false information” about his behavior that was allegedly reproduced during Monday’s press conference.
He claimed his right to defense before the “abuse of authority” of management because the “preventive suspension” of organic responsibilities in training – responsible for Coordination – while the facts are investigated or the request for an act “must be required by the guarantees committee, the only one authorized to do so. “The co-spokespersons, the coordination team or the leadership of the parliamentary group do not have this competence,” he concluded.
“Disgusting lynching”
Thus, he warned that he refused to “accept the disgusting lynching” to which she believes she is subjected in the media “in the most absolute helplessness with the personal and family consequences that this entails”.
“I demand that the facts with which I am accused be investigated, according to internal procedures, in complete independence and with the presumption of innocence, because only the truth will help us improve our internal behavior and find, as much as possible, the confidence lost with so many women. The truth counts, it is the only one that generates justice and reparation. »he remarked.
She stressed that “far from concealing” what she had reported, she once again emphasized Manuela Bergerot and expanded the circle of people with knowledge of the matter to other members of the party leadership. “As the spokespersons acknowledged at today’s press conference, they have no evidence of any cover-up because there was none,” he said. .
Loreto Arenillas apologized for her behavior and said that “she was totally unaware of the testimonies and attacks against women that are happening these days.” “I am shocked by these testimonies and I wish to provide my support to these women who were attacked. But one abuse is not covered by another. Not only do I deny the facts for which I am asked for my deputy certificate and I am dismissed from my organic functions, but I defend that I acted correctly, in the context of the error which caused those responsible to not have not activated internal protocols,” he concluded.
