Vox raises the tension with Fernando Grande-Marlaska. Deputy Macarena Olona has accused the Interior Minister of maneuvering 20 years ago in Bilbao, in his time as judge, to "prevent" certain information from coming to public light ", in the context of the burial of his partner José María Lidón , assassinated by ETA in 2001. Although he did not want to reveal exactly what he was referring to, he did insinuate that it was something "he stopped doing" regarding the terrorist gang and that it was the "origin" of his "hatred" of the Guard Civil.

"I ask you to reveal the truth and tell your president, the PSOE and all those present in this Chamber what happened 20 years ago in Bilbao and how they had to remind you that the fight against ETA is not compatible with cowardice, and what you did you or, rather, what did you stop doing as a magistrate to prevent certain information from coming to public light, "Olona told Marlaska during her confrontation at the control session of the Government in Congress.

This accusation has visibly angered the interior minister, who has openly challenged Olona to be "brave enough" to say "what she did or did not do" then and stop the hints. "I have been freed for a long time from the dictatorship of the gaze of others but also of silences," he reproached him.

Olona has gone back to the funeral of Judge Lidón, of whom he has shown a photograph with Marlaska being one of those who carried his coffin, to argue that "the reality behind" the controversial dismissal of Colonel Pérez de los Cobos is a episode of those moments for which the today interior minister "deeply hates the Civil Guard". And that this supposed feeling would also explain why he has removed other managers of the Armed Institute such as Sánchez Corbí or those who were in the Coordination and Studies Cabinet.

Likewise, Olona has exhibited another photograph of Marlaska from a few months ago, applauding an intervention by EH Bildu to reproach her for her "degradation" for that gesture with the "proetarras".

Very annoyed, Marlaska has reproached Olona for not having "limits" and has vindicated her role as judge of the National Court in the fight against ETA, delving into the fact that the one who carried Lidón's coffin "is the same one who is standing here" .

"The same that has been threatened by the terrorist organization ETA, the same that has been the object of two attacks thwarted by ETA," he said. "The one who worked to defeat ETA within the rule of law and the one who as a minister works so that all crimes are revealed, as well as their authors," he said, in a joint work with the victims.
