Overview

• The court rejected the popular prosecution’s bid to investigate Júcar basin authority president Miguel Polo, finding he lacked the legal duty to issue public alerts, which rests with the Valencian government.
• The judge reiterated that the only real information blackout was caused by Cecopi recesses and disconnections during the October 29 emergency, for which no rational explanation has been provided.
• À Punt was given one day to explain the perceived delay in delivering raw Cecopi recordings, though the broadcaster says it filed the requested videos last Friday.
• The judge ordered multiple institutions to supply records on the tele-assistance service and deceased users, including the regional parliament, social services, Valencia City Council, the provincial council, and Aemet.
• The ruling underscores that the case is confined to negligent homicides and injuries, excluding dolus and omission-of-rescue charges, with former officials Salomé Pradas and Emilio Argüeso remaining under investigation.
