Predictably, the lawyer for the former councilwoman of the PP in Móstoles will file a complaint today for harassment offenses against Manuel Bautista, mayor of Móstoles, according to legal sources. These same sources indicate that the complainant is devastated, but that her goal is for justice to be done and for this situation not to happen again to any woman.
The events would date back, supposedly, to the period between May 2023 and early 2024. The former councilwoman of the Popular Party in the Madrid town reported, communicated to the party, episodes of sexual and labor harassment by Bautista. The lawsuit, which will be filed through the telematic system Lexnet, also raises a possible violation of the rights of the former PP councilwoman, since, as is maintained, high-ranking party officials would have leaked, without her consent, personal emails in which she requested protection and a meeting with the Madrid president, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, to put an end to this situation.
Apparently in those messages, the plaintiff claimed to suffer workplace harassment, although not sexual harassment.
The complexity of the lawsuit would also lie in the difficulties that the now complainant has had in initiating this judicial path, due to the pressures received, according to her version, from her own party to not take legal action against Bautista.
The program Mañaneros 360 revealed that Ana Millán, a member of Ayuso's closest team, allegedly pressured the former councilwoman, warning her that she had evidence that would show the plaintiff was providing information to the PSOE on this matter, which would constitute disloyalty to her own political party.
The popular mayor of Alcalá de Henares is also being investigated for another case
Another of the causes affecting the People's Party in the Community of Madrid refers to an alleged leak of a police report, specifically of two complaints for sexual assault in which migrants were identified as perpetrators, in January 2024. The mayor of Alcalá de Henares, Judith Piquet, is being investigated for an alleged crime of infidelity in the custody of documents.
The councilwoman publicly stated that there were two sexual assault complaints in which it was indicated that the perpetrator was a young black male. These statements were made after a series of altercations involving migrants who arrived in the Canary Islands and were transferred to the Reception, Emergency, and Referral Center (CAED), located at the Primo de Rivera barracks in Alcalá de Henares, among other locations in Spain.
To all of this is added that Alfonso Serrano, number three of Ayuso, published on the social network X a photograph of part of the police report in which the sexual assault complaint against a “black young man” appeared reflected. For this reason, Serrano has been summoned as a witness in this case. It will be on April 15 when he appears at the judicial complex of Alcalá de Henares, with the obligation to tell the truth, to clarify who provided him with the police documentation or the photograph of it.
The Socialist Party of this municipality considered that the PP was linking migration with the alleged sexual assault that occurred and that this constituted a political maneuver of a racist nature.
