The court investigating Íñigo Errejón for the complaint of sexual assault filed by Elisa Mouliaá has decided, at the request of the complainant herself and for health reasons of her lawyer, to suspend all deadlines and procedures in this case. This includes the suspension of the declarations of Mouliaá and Errejón scheduled for this Tuesday, November 12 in the Plaza de Castilla in Madrid. Mouliaá’s legal representation has already asked to delay its statement because it is collecting testimonies from more women who would like to denounce the former Sumar MP.
The actress filed a complaint against the former politician, reporting that in September 2021, she was the victim of a sexual assault during a party where they met. According to this complaint, Errejón closed the door to the room where they were and then subjected her to touching which, as he explains, never had her consent. The police sent the complaint directly to the Madrid courts and the investigator, after verifying that Íñigo Errejón is no longer a deputy, opened a case against him.
The first step taken by the judge was to call them to testify, but these appearances have not yet taken place. Mouliaá, through his lawyer, requested the suspension of his statement and this was delayed until November 12, when Errejón also had to declare himself under investigation. Following the request of Mouliaá’s lawyer, Court 47 of the capital “accepted the suspension of deadlines and procedural acts”, according to a press release from the Superior Court of Madrid.
Íñigo Errejón left his politically responsible position as deputy for Sumar and parliamentary spokesperson for the party when journalist Cristina Fallarás published the testimony of a woman who claimed to have been the victim of sexist attitudes on the part of a politician. Before his party, Errejón admitted the facts with which he was accused and left his deputy file.
