Overview
- Mar Costa Carmona, a councillor from Logrosán, filed an internal complaint alleging workplace harassment by José Luis Quintana tied to her dismissal more than a year ago.
- Quintana, the Government’s delegate in Extremadura and head of the regional caretaker committee, rejects the allegation and says the accuser never reported to him.
- The PSOE of Extremadura issued a statement calling the claims false and announced it will take legal action against those who make or spread them.
- The prior dismissal was formally decided under then regional leader Miguel Ángel Gallardo, and former organization secretary Manuel Mejías says the move was purely organizational and unrelated to Quintana.
- Ferraz confirmed receiving the complaint and initiating its internal process as the party faces wider scrutiny over how it handles harassment allegations.
