The Investigating Court number 3 of Malaga has summoned the manager of the municipal parking and services company (SMASSA), Manuel Díaz, to appear in court today, Wednesday, for the case opened after the complaint of irregularities in the works of the Pío Baroja car park.
Judicial sources have indicated that on the same day it is expected that the former head of the Department of the Technical Office of the company, the complainant, Trinidad Rodríguez, and several witnesses, including the Councillor for Mobility, José del Río, will also appear.
The Investigating Court number 3 of Malaga opened this case as a result of a complaint filed by Rodríguez, considering that the facts presented characteristics that made it possible to presume the possible existence of a criminal offence.
The prosecutor opened proceedings after the complaint filed by the PSOE and IU that requested that the complaints made by the workers of the municipal parking company of Malaga be investigated as a result of a work on the Pío Baroja car park in the Malaga neighbourhood of El Palo.
The two opposition parties went to the Prosecutor’s Office on October 10 to request an investigation into whether the facts could constitute a crime of administrative trespass derived from the alleged irregularities referred to in the contract and the works carried out in the aforementioned car park.
The facts denounced date back to last October when, during a plenary session, the former technical director of the Pío Baroja car park, Trinidad Jiménez, warned that she was removed from her duties by refusing to cross certain red lines.
Manuel Díaz’s defence lawyer, Jose Carlos Aguilera, has assured that the case has been opened to “clarify the facts” and has regretted that the complaint is “full of conjectures, speculations and the odd false statement.”
