Strong denials from the defense
Núria González, Rosa Peral’s lawyer, has firmly rejected the accusations that implicate her client in a plan to assault an employee at Mas d’Enric prison. In an interview with Catalunya Ràdio, he stated that these claims are ‘totally false’ and assured that there is no evidence to support such an accusation.
Context of complaints in prison
González has linked the recent information with the previous complaints presented by Rosa Peral about her treatment in the penitentiary institution. According to the lawyer, these complaints, which go back months, have also been borne by other inmates. Peral’s father recently had a meeting with the center’s management to address these concerns.
Investigation underway
The lawyer stated that the complaints have been presented both to the prison authorities and to the Ombudsman, and confirmed that an investigation is being carried out into the events reported. Gonzalez hinted that some people’s nervous reaction might be related to those complaints.
Living conditions in prison
During his intervention, González specified that the complaints include excessive searches in Peral’s cell, the removal of personal property acquired in prison, as well as obstacles in family visits. This situation has generated considerable concern among the defense.
Demands for transparency
González also called for transparency, suggesting that if anyone has evidence of the alleged assault, they should present it in court, instead of doing so publicly. ‘Why isn’t this taken to court?’, he asked.
Current situation of Rosa Peral
Finally, the lawyer defended that Rosa Peral has established a stable routine at Mas d’Enric and that she does not display behavior that could compromise her safety or that of others. At the time of the incident that was mentioned, González reiterated that no allusion was made to his client.
