Overview
- The provincial party announced a disciplinary proceeding against Martos councillor Manuel Cortés after a TikTok video showed him singing misogynistic and sexual lyrics.
- The communiqué invoked article 83 of the PSOE’s federal statutes to open the case and asked for a provisional suspension of membership under article 90.
- The Jaén organization urged Cortés to place his council seat at the party’s disposal.
- Party officials condemned the conduct as inadmissible and repugnant, calling it contrary to principles of feminism and equality.
- The move comes after weeks of reporting on separate sexual harassment complaints involving other PSOE figures, increasing scrutiny of the party’s internal accountability.
