After TV Broadcast, Six PSOE Women Accuse Lugo Leader José Tomé of Sexual Harassment

Tomé rejects the claims, vows legal action, with party leaders reporting no formal complaint.

Overview

  • The Cuatro program Código10 aired accounts from at least six women linked to the party who identified Tomé as the alleged perpetrator.
  • Testimonies cite lewd comments, sexualized calls and images, unwanted touching, and an alleged offer of employment in exchange for sex.
  • Accusers say they had already filed through the PSOE’s internal complaints channel and alerted regional officials without any action taken.
  • PSdeG leader José Ramón Gómez Besteiro says the party has no record of a formal complaint, and local reporting describes internal calls to identify the complainants.
  • Tomé, president of the Lugo provincial council and mayor of Monforte de Lemos, denies the allegations, labels them a “montaxe,” and says he will take legal action.
