After a court rejected appeals by senior officials last month, the association filed its provisional accusation to move the long-reopened 2016-2017 case toward trial

Overview

  • The association Gobierna-te demands six years in prison plus 15 years of public office disqualification and 10 years of absolute inhabilitación for Oltra over alleged omissions of duty, administrative prevarication, embezzlement and concealment.
  • The charges focus on Oltra’s tenure as Valencian vice-president and equality minister between 2016 and 2017 when her ex-husband, monitor Luis Ramírez, sexually abused a minor under Generalitat care.
  • The Audiencia de Valencia last month declined appeals from six high-ranking officials and confirmed its June 2024 order to reopen the case after an initial April 2024 archive decision.
  • The victim’s legal team led by José Luis Roberto has requested three and a half years in prison and 12 years of disqualification for Oltra in its separate written accusation.
  • Spain’s public prosecutor has yet to file formal charges, leaving the Fiscalía’s position unresolved ahead of a scheduled oral hearing.
