Sánchez criticizes the PP for continuing to have Alberto Casero as a deputy despite being investigated by the Supreme

MADRID, 13 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, has criticized the PP spokesperson in Congress, Cuca Gamarra, for the fact that the 'popular' deputy Alberto Casero continues to form part of the parliamentary group when the Supreme Court has requested a petition.

In his speech from the Congress rostrum this Thursday, in which he appeared at his own request to explain the Government's anti-crisis measures, Sánchez addressed Gamarra and asked him "What is a deputy doing, still in his group, for whom the Court Has the Supreme requested a request?", He has disfigured.

The High Court has requested this procedure from the Lower House to investigate Casero, who is blamed for evidence of the crime of prevarication and embezzlement for contracts signed when he was mayor of Trujillo (Cáceres).

The PP, for its part, opened an information file on Casero in the summer. When the judge proposed a month ago to send a request to Congress to proceed criminally against him for evidence of prevarication, the PP assured the party that it will take more measures if the judge opens an oral trial, as stated in the party's Statutes.

On September 13, the general secretary of the PP, Cuca Gamarra, stated when expressly asked at a press conference if the PP is going to take action against the Extremaduran deputy: "This has not affected or changed the procedural situation in which Deputy Casero is present and the PP acts based on our Statutes," he said, adding that they are not "the party of pardon" (alluding to the possible granting of a measure of grace to José Antonio Griñán) but that they act " from the responsibility and the application" of its statutory regulations.

A week ago, when Congress gave the green light to the petition requested by the Supreme Court to investigate Casero, PP sources then minimized that step, assuring that it was a "procedural issue" and that it had "no type of impact."
