The mayor of Algeciras, José Ignacio Landaluce, expressed his discomfort with Fernando Grande-Marlaska for not having yet received the call from the Minister of the Interior asking him to provide details of the investigation into the attack on two churches in the city, which caused the death of a sacristan and four wounded.
In the program El món a RAC1 by Jordi Basté, the popular politician regretted this lack of information on Thursday. At the same time, he criticized that Marlaska had not contacted him hours after the incident involving a 25-year-old Moroccan. He is "annoyed" and ironically that it is "very easy" to get his mobile phone number.
In addition, he blamed the socialist minister for not having reinforced the city with more agents. "I asked for more police, despite the fact that Algeciras is one of the safest cities in Spain and Europe." On the Cope Landaluce chain, he confirmed that the local police were in charge of making the arrest after a few minutes and that the security video cameras were also important to "observe whether or not the murderer was accompanied."
Landulce confirmed that the alleged terrorist, a hypothesis with which the police are working, was alone and asked his fellow citizens for "calmness", although he understands that they are "nervous and scared". He also announced that Father Antonio, one of the injured, came out of the operating room and is feeling better.
In his morning interventions with the media, he did not know if the detainee was pending expulsion, as published by the newspaper El Confidencial. "We don't know if he's a crazy man, a lone wolf, an indoctrinated... his gaze doesn't have it from having lost his head, from those unfocused ones. From what can be seen on the forums, he's a boy who looks slyly, which hurts more," he said of the attacker, who "apparently was arguing and yelling that Islam was the true religion."
In the program Despierta Andalucía on Canal Sur, he assured that the city feels "disoriented, disoriented and angry." "It is not logical or sensible to do that to such a good person who only caught his attention for throwing things from the altar."
129 different nationalities lived together for the first time a serious event happened, lower levels of insecurity, these circumstances have a bad reputation and drug trafficking headlines from time to time, a thriving city, with the first port in the Mediterranean and in Spain, wonderful people, normal people and common as any society. Negative headlines at the national level are distorted
We are still disoriented, barely, disoriented, angry, nor is it logically sensible to such a good person, the reason she did not throw away the things from the altar caught her attention
