Overview
- UFAM officers detained a Grupo de Atención al Ciudadano agent in Valencia in early January over alleged non‑consensual touching and explicit sexual remarks at a post‑Christmas lunch gathering on December 19.
- The complaint details that he grabbed the trainee’s breast and made crude propositions, with WhatsApp messages the next day apologizing and reportedly acknowledging the behavior.
- A colleague challenged the accused at the pub, another officer stepped in, and witnesses later said similar comments had been directed at other trainees previously.
- The officer held a superior role over the trainee, which the account cites as a reason she did not confront him more forcefully during the incident.
- The judge released him with charges and has not imposed a restraining order, as police and judicial investigations continue with potential internal discipline under consideration.
