The investigation focuses on several alleged crimes, including hate and discrimination, related to the mass eviction that took place on December 17, which left around 400 migrants, mostly sub-Saharan, homeless.
The document presented by Comuns MEP, Jaume Asens, before the Prosecutor's Office Hate and Discrimination Unit, points to four possible offenses: denial of public service for discriminatory reasons, hate crime, disobedience to judicial authority, and administrative malfeasance (prevaricación).
The judicial resolution that allowed the eviction conditioned it on guaranteeing alternative housing for the affected persons in accordance with the municipal protocol for homeless people.
Asens argued in his complaint that the judicial resolution authorizing the December 17 eviction was conditional on the obligation to guarantee alternative housing for the affected individuals, in line with the municipal protocol for the homeless.
