Overview

• The Government delegate in Murcia, Francisco Lucas, directed the Guardia Civil to stop the Vox-organized concentration scheduled for Wednesday.
• The Delegation declared the call illegal because it was circulated on social media without the required official notification.
• Authorities stressed the duty to protect minors and public safety, noting that the right of assembly does not cover harassment of vulnerable groups.
• Vox had announced attendance by its national spokesperson on immigration and security, Samuel Vázquez, alongside regional deputies and Murcia councillors.
• Luis Gestoso, Vox’s spokesman at Murcia City Hall, urged supporters on social media to go “say goodbye to the menas of Santa Cruz,” referring to the minors housed there.
