As this newspaper has been able to know, there are several complaints crossed by the struggle between one and the other to take over the ex-husband's cell phone, in which he allegedly recorded the threats of the new Cerdá couple towards his person. Among these complaints, the main one was the one filed by Cerdá against her ex-husband and father of her daughter for facts that could be constitutive of “a crime of ill-treatment in the family environment” that is investigated in the Court of Violence on Women number 1 of Elche, Criminal Matters.

There is the circumstance that Vox has expressed itself “radically against the State Pact against Gender Violence” because it considers that “it will not eradicate the violence it intends to combat and will generate new injustices and discrimination, legal helplessness and violation of fundamental rights by being based on expanding and hardening an ineffective and unfair law ». Among other things, they allege that extraordinary measures of treatment of possible victims of this type of violence "generate a legal asymmetry contrary to our Magna Carta and create legal precedents that undermine the bases of the law." They also question "the existence of false allegations of gender violence for instrumental reasons."

The spokeswoman for Vox de Elche is oblivious to these criticisms of the law by her party in a scenario of ratification of her daughter's divorce and custody agreement. In fact, both parties even talked about the withdrawal of mutual complaints.

"First because having filed the complaint on May 3 did not go to court the next day when he was summoned and second because his" fear "was" only of insults. "

In addition, on September 17, the minutes of the viewing of the parking chamber that recorded the fight between the mayor, her current partner and her ex-husband, in which the lawyer of the Administration of Justice (former judicial secretary) states that After the fight between the two men, the ex-husband "rushes over the woman from behind with his arms, turns her left shoulder and snatches the cell phone she carries in her hands." Also, that entering the scene the new couple of the Cerdá «it is not observed if what it tries is to defend the woman or to recover the mobile; there seems to be no contact » . The lawyer of the mayor protested ensuring that the lawyer of the Administration made a "subjective" story

Tomorrow there will be a judicial hearing for other facts, the alleged insults that the Vox spokeswoman uttered to the father of her ex-husband with whom she met at a bank branch on July 30.

This newspaper tried yesterday to collect the version of the municipal spokeswoman for Vox in Elche, who refused to answer the questions.

Argument of Vox against the law

«Legal inequality». "The fact of extending the assumptions of a specific violence to any case of violence against men against women increases legal inequality between citizens and the situation of legal protection and criminalization of men because of their sex."

"It undermines the foundations of law." «The extraordinary measures of treatment of possible victims of this type of violence [...] generates a legal asymmetry contrary to our Magna Carta and creates legal precedents that undermine the bases of the law.

«False complaints». «The denial of the existence of false allegations of gender violence for instrumental reasons and that this crime is not pursued as a priority, makes all the proposed measures counterproductive»

"Economic inversion". "The huge investment in the last decade of public funds against this type of violence has not improved the situation."

«Male abuser by his sex». « The intrusion in the educational centers of an ideology that criminalizes the male accusing him of being an abuser for his sex and that forgets other violence, far from facilitating respect between the sexes, hinders the relationships of minors, makes other victims of violence invisible and creates new situations of injustice.
