Abascal announces a criminal complaint against Pedro Sánchez for "conspiracy to commit a crime"

The president of Vox, Santiago Abascal, has announced that next Friday his parliamentary group will present a criminal complaint for "conspiracy to commit a crime" before the Supreme Court against the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, and all those who have intervened in the reform of the Criminal Code that eliminates the crime of sedition and reforms that of embezzlement, which will foreseeably see the final green light on Thursday in the Senate.

Abascal has made this announcement in an institutional declaration in Congress after the Constitutional Court admitted yesterday an appeal by the PP to analyze the reform of its own renewal introduced with two amendments to the reform of the Penal Code and paralyzed the processing in the Senate of those precepts.

For Vox, the court of constitutional guarantees has only ruled "on a violation of the procedures" for "violating the rights of parliamentarians", but Abascal points out that the most serious thing is the part that continues its processing, for which he considers that " the blow against coexistence, against the rule of law and against the Constitution has not stopped" and describes the reform of the Penal Code as "the most serious attack that the Constitution has suffered".

Abascal has accused Sánchez of "assaulting" the separation of powers and of agreeing with "some criminals convicted and or on the run for impunity for their crimes", alluding to the leaders of the process, and "guarantees impunity to commit crimes again ". For this reason, the far-right leader has announced the presentation of the complaint before the Second Chamber of the TS against the head of the Executive and against all those who have intervened in the approval of the reform, which he has labeled a "criminal concert."

Likewise, Abascal has confirmed that his group continues to work "without rest" in the approach of a motion of censure against Sánchez.
