The PP considers it "nonsense" to reform the Penal Code in relation to terrorism crimes and warns the Government of this possibility and of an "occurrence" that, in the opinion of the popular ones, could end up "releasing terrorists of all kinds to streets".
The PP spokesperson in Congress, Miguel Tellado, has referred in this way in an interview on Antena 3 to the information published by La Vanguardia, according to which the Government and Junts are exploring new avenues to agree on the amnesty law, including a reform of the Penal Code relating to terrorist crimes.
"Be careful about touching the Penal Code again, because every time the Government commits an improvisation of this type it ends up releasing criminals: it happened to them with the law of only yes it means yes (...) and it is not going to be that now with "This occurrence ultimately ends up releasing terrorists of all kinds into the streets and setting them free."
The Popular leader has insisted that the Government should "abandon, once and for all, this amnesty law": "It is a historical error" that, in his opinion, "the PSOE cannot allow itself", after recalling that the proposed rule has been overturned by an absolute majority in Congress.
"He should accept that result, his mistake and give up on processing that type of law," he added. Tellado has also referred to the brief that they have presented in the Lower House, addressed to the president of Congress, Francina Armengol, to tell her that this law "has completed its processing" because it was rejected by the majority in Congress.
In this sense, he has demanded that Amengol not continue down that path (that of taking it to the Justice Commission), warning him that the PP will resort to any instance and that they reserve any type of action. "Be careful because this step that Armengol intends to commit could vitiate the procedures for approving the amnesty law and, therefore, make it inapplicable," the popular leader has warned.
