Overview

• The CGPJ’s Observatorio told Equality it had forwarded Granada court alerts on January 8 and February 21, 2025, after the first local warning on July 10, 2024, and relayed another incident from Galicia on February 27.
• Prosecutors report a migration-related error in the Cometa system that deprived courts of reliable geolocation evidence in some breach cases, contributing to acquittals or dismissals.
• Magistrates describe persistent mislocations, coverage gaps and repeated device swaps—sometimes three or four times—forcing extra checks and heavier reliance on police protection.
• Equality asserts the bracelets continued to protect victims and notes there have been no murders of women wearing the device, yet it has not provided clear figures on the scope or resolution of the faults.
• Political pressure grows as Sumar says it warned the Government in March 2024 and sought a probe of the concessionaire, the Themis study from October 2024 remains unpublished, and the 2026 re-tender is set to tighten requirements.
