Overview
- Two principal victims’ associations set relinquishing Carlos Mazón’s regional deputy seat as a condition for any meeting with President Juanfran Pérez Llorca.
- WhatsApp exchanges among ex-consellera Salomé Pradas, Carlos Mazón and former chief of staff José Manuel Cuenca were published and delivered to the investigating judge, placing them in the judicial record.
- The groups say the messages show officials were informed of an active hydrological alert and rising flows in the barranco del Poyo and the río Magro before the worst flooding.
- Chats cited include Cuenca telling Pradas “De confinar nada” and urging “calma,” which the associations argue delayed mass warnings such as Es-Alert.
- The logs include Pradas warning Mazón hours before his meal at El Ventorro and his “Cojonudo” reply, and reporting indicates the timeline contradicts statements Mazón and Cuenca gave to a congressional committee.
