The Government questions the Supreme Instructor: « Some judges are doing difficult things to understand » | Spain

The government maintains its support until the end of the State Attorney General, Álvaro García Ortiz, and makes a leap in his criticism to the order of the judge of Supreme Angel Hurtado. The Executive does not accuse him of prevarication, the most serious crime for the judges, this is to make an unfair decision to know, but almost says the same with other words to avoid raising criminal actions of a magistrate and, politically, launch the same message.

The spokeswoman, Pilar Alegría, has been direct in a very prepared response at the press conference after the Council of Ministers. « It is evident that at this point some judges are doing difficult things to understand, » he said before the first question about Judge Hurtado’s car. They also asked him if the Executive believes that the judge is making unjust decisions knowing, if he is prevailing. And she did not reject the term although she remained in the phrase she had prepared and measured. « I think that with the expression difficult to understand it is explained well. There is no clear proof that indicates the attorney general as a filter of anything. Several journalists explained that they had that information and not by the prosecutor and their testimonies have not been taken into account. The expression is prudent, but sufficiently explicit, » he finished, thus insinuating the idea of ​​prevarication but not to mention it.

The executive is being very hard with the judge’s car, which criticize even stronger in private. That is why they defend the prosecutor, because they believe that he is being unfairly processed and without any evidence. That is why they break the criteria, quite installed in the PSOE in recent years, that a leader must resign when oral trial is opened. The Executive appeals to the exceptionality of the judge’s action to justify the exceptionality of his response, which implies defending the attorney general until the end, practically until he is convicted, something that they also see totally impossible without evidence.

« This government maintains support for the Attorney General, » said joy. “I deny and categorically deny that there were instructions from the presidency. This never happened. We regret it much that the Supreme has made these statements without any evidence. There is no proof that the prosecutor leaked anything. Several journalists declared that they had the information several hours before, and these testimonies were thrown out to the trash. We defend the presumption of innocence, especially in this case. It is not a firm car. In justice, in the honesty and good work of judges and prosecutors, ”said the spokeswoman.

The Government believes that the judge has made a serious mistake with a car in which he does not contribute anything solid to incriminate the prosecutor and is convinced that a very important part of public opinion, according to the surveys that the Executive manages internally, is beginning to turn before the evidence that some judges – the government always insists that there are only a few, not many or a majority – are making decisions to the limit to harm the Executive. So the Government, for months, has changed its usual response of « total respect for the actions of the judges » for a hard contract to each controversial decision that harms it.
