ERC announces an agreement with the Government to investigate the activities of the Civil Guard in the barracks

The ERC spokesman in Congress, Gabriel Rufián, announced this Tuesday that his parliamentary group and EH Bildu have agreed with the Government to create a "specific" commission of investigation in the Lower House on the "corruptions published around the activity of the Civil Guard in the barns", that "Tito Berni" and "company" go to already existing commissions in the Lower House and "accelerate" the investigation commission of the Catalonia operation.

With this triple agreement, Rufián, who has advanced that ERC and Bildu will register this proposal in Congress, has explained that both groups distance themselves from the investigation commission proposed by the PP on the Mediator case.

"These three things are what make us knock down that commission of inquiry requested by the PP," said the Republican spokesman at a press conference in the Lower House after explaining that they "creeped" that the popular were the ones who presented a commission of investigation , something that he has branded as "Kafkian" and "hypocritical", given that the PP "is also involved in very similar cases to the Mediator case".

The Republican spokesman has defended that his group has always wanted the Mediator case to be investigated and that it seemed very difficult for them not to vote in favor of an investigation commission for this purpose. However, he has pointed out that both the ERC and the abertzales wanted to circumvent the "opportunism of the Popular Party".

For this reason, Rufián has made this triple announcement and has detailed that the retired Civil Guard general and in preventive detention for the Mediator case, Francisco Espinosa Navas, could appear before the specific commission on the activities of certain Civil Guard commanders in the barracks of the armed institute that have become known in recent weeks.

Likewise, the ERC spokesman has indicated that "some visible faces" of the Mediator case, such as the former PSOE deputy Juan Bernardo Fuentes Curbelo, known as Tito Berni, could respond to existing commissions in Congress such as the Interior or the Democratic Quality. .

And finally, he pointed out that the agreement also includes accelerating the commission of investigation of the Catalonia operation. that was reactivated last week and specifically, "expand names" that for his group are "very significant."
