Íñigo Errejón Appeals Sexual-Assault Processing, Urges Madrid Court to Dismiss Case

The filing disputes the judge’s evidentiary rationale, citing alleged payments to the complainant after the complaint.

Overview

  • Errejón’s defense lodged an appeal with the Audiencia Provincial de Madrid seeking to annul the auto de procesamiento issued by Judge Adolfo Carretero.
  • The brief asks for the case to be closed for lack of indicia and notes the court has not yet ruled on the appeal.
  • The defense alleges the complainant obtained €54,000 through two contracts after reporting the case and accuses her of false testimony for denying any economic benefit.
  • The appeal rejects the notion that the three-year delay in reporting was due to fear, pointing to a TV interview where the actress said she had moved on and was not aware of a crime.
  • The filing disputes medical and witness claims, saying no reports substantiate a depressive disorder linked to the night in question, the actress denied taking an antidepressant, and two witnesses said she was not affected by alcohol.
