Vito Quiles' 'modus operandi' to evade judicial notifications: "He gives the indication not to pick up anything from him"

The strategy of ultra Vito Quiles to evade judicial notifications is reflected in a new document to which 'ElConstitucional.es' has had access. A judicial official traveled to the EDATV facilities, the media outlet of Javier Negre and the second address provided by Quiles himself, to deliver a notification to him. As he was not there, his colleagues contacted him by phone to inform him of the official's presence. It was then that, according to the document, Quiles gave the order to "not collect anything from him," thus preventing the documentation from being delivered.

The episode is recorded in a return document of the rogatory letter sent to the court that is trying to deliver the documentation to Quiles. The official stated that, at the address provided, the EDATV entity was located, although the interested party was not physically at the facilities at that time. Co-workers contacted him by phone and, according to the document, Quiles instructed them not to receive the documentation.

The literal text of the judicial document states: "This address corresponds to the EDATV office. The staff found there calls the interested party at that moment, who gives the instruction not to collect anything from him."

A recurring behavior

It is common for the ultra to carry out this procedure to evade notifications. In this regard, in March 2025, as reported by 'ElPlural', the Common Service of Communication Acts of the Administration of Justice informed a court of first instance that it had not been able to notify him of a lawsuit for an alleged illegitimate interference with the right to honor.

According to the media, the judicial body had made "several attempts" to communicate the lawsuit, with "negative" results, after the agitator failed to receive the documentation, alluding to the same practice: demanding that his colleagues not receive the documentation.

The procedure for the alleged scam of the toy campaign

Apart from these notifications and the procedures to which they correspond, Vito Quiles also faces a new judicial investigation following a complaint filed by FACUA on July 20 for the fundraising and toy collection campaign aimed at those affected by the DANA in Valencia.

The organization reported that Quiles used the same personal bank account to receive contributions in which he was already receiving money for other purposes, without establishing a specific concept that would allow differentiating the amounts destined for the solidarity campaign. The Prosecutor's Office considers that this system could have misled donors, by not allowing to clearly determine how much money was raised for those affected, what part was actually used to buy toys, or if any amount remained at the disposal of the agitator himself.

The Public Prosecutor's Office sees indications of a possible crime of fraud and has transferred the proceedings to the Instruction Section of the Court of Instance of Seville. This is, according to the information provided, the tenth criminal proceeding in which Quiles is involved.

One of the main elements used by the agitator to defend the management of the campaign has been the truck loaded with about a ton of toys that he publicly displayed. However, Rubén Sánchez, general secretary of FACUA, explained in 'Malas Lenguas' on TVE that hundreds of those toys came directly from Valencian families who handed them over during the in-person collection campaign.

The delivery of toys and economic transfers functioned as differentiated channels of collaboration. Therefore, the images of the truck do not allow determining that all the merchandise had been acquired with the economic contributions received in Quiles' account. The investigation must now clarify how much money was raised through transfers and what its final destination was.
