Overview
- The footage from the Emergency Coordination Center in l'Eliana shows Salomé Pradas at 12:32 writing “Río Magro,” “Rambla del Poyo,” “alerta hidrológica” and “bomberos forestales” during the floods that left 229 dead.
- EL PAÍS reports the Generalitat kept the video from the investigating judge and it entered the case only after a judicial request following an 11‑month gap.
- The images indicate the regional command had assumed monitoring of the Magro and the Poyo, whose overflows later devastated towns such as Catarroja and Paiporta.
- Acció Cultural del País Valencià contends the material is edited and will ask the court for the unmodified recording, with lawyer Manuel Mata alleging manipulation.
- Separate recordings show subdirector Jorge Suárez proposed a mobile warning around 17:00 for Utiel and Requena, yet the ES‑Alert went out at 20:11, and firefighters had stopped watching the Poyo by 15:00, according to case records.
