A tragedy without responsible
With 228 lives lost, the balance of the devastating ravine continues without responsible. Five months ago, the catastrophe shook the company, which is now organized into a series of mobilizations to demand accounts for improper management of the situation.
Social and legal mobilization
Popular outrage has been manifested through various mobilizations and dozens of protests throughout the territory. This social action is accompanied by a legal response, with up to nine popular accusations that have joined the judicial investigation led by magistrate Nuria Ruiz Tobarra.
The victim’s voice
The platform Mai again, composed of almost 500 affected and law professionals, has decided to join efforts to ensure that the authorities will assume their responsibilities. Francesc Miralles, one of his representatives, said that his initial intention was to file a complaint, but they have chosen to collaborate with the judicial investigation, relying on their impartiality.
The responsibility of the authorities
Miralles emphasizes that the deaths were avoidable, as authorities had sufficient information to alert the population in advance. His critique focuses on the lack of preventive measures that could have saved lives.
Comparative with other incidents
The jurist mentions precedents such as the flood of Biescas, where the administrations were considered responsible for not acting properly. This comparison serves to emphasize the need for a more proactive response to emergency situations.
Political implications
The management of President Carlos Mazón has been controversial. Miralles calls it a ‘political zombie’, accusing him of avoiding responsibilities and manipulating information to escape public criticism.
Distraction strategies
Its vox alliance to approve budgets has generated rejection, with Miralles stating that these actions are a smoke curtain to divert attention to their mismanagement.
Future mobilizations
The platform never plans for a great mobilization for April 29, with the aim of making visible its demand for justice and responsibility by the Government. It is considered that this event may be crucial for the visibility of its demands at European level.
Towards a more sustainable future
In addition to seeking responsibilities for the management of the ravine, the platform works to promote environmental protection and the implementation of effective policies against climate change, collaborating with environmental organizations to pressure the authorities.
