The Mayor of Albox, in Andalucía, Rogelio Mena of the PSOE, has signed a decree ordering the arrest and detention of those responsible for trying to cut the electricity supply to a municipal building, as a result of a 130,000 euro debt. The mayor claims that the act “endangers public safety”, as the emergency services have equipment in the buildings, such as radio transmitters, as well as equipment used for the general policing and well being of the citizens of his town. Meanwhile, Endesa, the company responsible for supplying the power, said that they “never” cut power for “essential services” related to health or safety, and has shown its willingness to negotiate to solve the problem.

The Spanish asylum office has denied entry to a 29 year old Panamanian transsexual, who had reportedly fled her home town after being the victim of repeated assaults from the police since the age of 13. She landed on the 7th of March in Barajas, trying to escape persecution, and sought international protection, which was denied by the asylum office, despite having a report of the High Commissioner for Refugees in favour of the admissibility of the request.
