Mónica Oltra, on the reason for which they ask for her imputation: «I do not carry my defense strategy because it would be reckless»

The vice president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Mónica Oltra, has declined to rule this Friday on her appearance in the case that investigates the management made by the Ministry of Equality and Inclusive Policies of the sexual abuse of her ex-husband to a minor under guardianship.

As reported by ABC this Thursday, while waiting for the Superior Court of Justice of the Valencian Community to decide whether or not to charge the leader of Compromís -registered for being a regional deputy- in an investigation that affects thirteen charges and officials, it has been accepted Oltra's request to be a party to it as "interested party". A movement that allows him to make allegations and try to stop the possible imputation of her.

In this regard, at the press conference after the weekly meeting of the Consell, the spokeswoman for the regional Executive has indicated that she does not comment on "anyone's defense strategies, least of all in this case", since "she would not have the perspective that is due have professionally.

"Just as a surgeon does not operate on himself, it is not a good idea for a lawyer to lead his defense," he pointed out. "I have not put the defense strategy in my hands because if I did I would be reckless and sometimes I am, but not so much," she added. In fact, Oltra has hired the penalists Daniel Sala and Miguel Ferrer.

The head of the Investigating Court number 15 of Valencia asked the TSJ to indict the leader of Compromís, in an extensive reasoned statement, considering that there are "rational, serious and well-founded indications" of her participation in the alleged cover-up of the aggressor -a educator sentenced to five years in prison - and the alleged helplessness of the victim - a 14-year-old girl who lived in a juvenile facility.

According to a procedure dated May 18 to which this newspaper has had access and against which it is possible to appeal, the lawyers will be able to obtain a copy of the reasoned statement and the actions sent by the instructor Vicente Ríos, as well as those that are issue from now on.

The objective is to access all the documentation to "be able to argue" -as stated in the letter formulated at the beginning of the month- against what is deemed appropriate and to prevent the vice president from ending up declaring before the magistrates as investigated one year after the elections regional.

It will be the president of the Superior Court of Justice of the Valencian Community, Pilar de la Oliva, and the magistrates Antonio Ferrer and Vicente Torres who will decide whether or not to impute the spokesperson for the regional government and, at the same time, if they assume the entire cause. For this, the Prosecutor's Office and the rest of the accusations will have to pronounce themselves first, so the process will last for several weeks.
