The PP accuses Sánchez of laying "red carpet of impunity" to Puigdemont, but avoids talking about a motion of censure

MADRID, 11 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The general secretary of the PP, Cuca Gamarra, has accused this Friday the head of the Executive, Pedro Sánchez, of putting "red carpet of impunity" to the leaders of the 'proces', so that those who were disqualified can present themselves to the elections or the "escaped" from Justice "do not have to go to jail, alluding --without citing them-- to Oriol Junqueras and Carles Puigdemont, among others. Although he has made a harsh intervention against Pedro Sánchez, he has avoided talking about motion of censorship as defended by Cs.

"We are facing the repeal of the crime of sedition. In short, before the red carpet of impunity that Sánchez lays out for the leaders of the parties that support him and on whom he depends to continue being president of the Government and spend some more time in Moncloa" Gamarra declared at a press conference in Congress.

Gamarra has stressed that this step by Sánchez shows the "big lie" to his voters because he promised in the electoral campaign to criminalize the illegal call for a referendum and toughen the crime of sedition, as well as "bring Puigdemont" to Spain to "bring him to justice Spanish".

When asked if this penal reform is reason enough to present a motion of censure as Cs has said or if she disagrees with Inés Arrimadas, the spokeswoman for the Popular Group has indicated that at the moment the PP makes "solely and exclusively an assessment" without " go into other aspects"

"Mrs. Arrimadas, if she wanted, could have stayed in Catalonia and could even have presented herself as president of the Generalitat in an investiture", Gamarra proclaimed before the media, who have asked her several questions about whether she would support that motion.

After accusing Sánchez of "abandoning State policies" and breaking the "equality of Spaniards before the law", he stressed that they are two parties "whose leaders are directly affected by the reform that is being discussed", alluding to to ERC and Junts, so that it will be "the criminals themselves who approve this reform for their own benefit".

Gamarra has highlighted that "no other president would have thought of promoting this reform of the Criminal Code so that the one that is going to have the votes of the criminals themselves who are going to benefit from it" and that converts those who attacked the constitutional order "into mere hooligans".
