The young

20-year

-old

KGS

investigated for an alleged

hate crime for attacking a PP militant

has denied before the judge that he punched her in the face. The aggression took place, as confirmed by Ander García, after KGS called him

"facha" and "son of a bitch"

, after confirming that he was a member of the Basque PP.

Two witnesses

present at the time of the attack have also confirmed

the same account as Ander García,

who had already included in his complaint a

part of a doctor

scratches from a grab prior to the punch and the lip split from the inside by the impact. The young woman faces up to four years in prison and a fine.

KGS has admitted in his appearance before the investigating judge that he insulted Ander García, the young militant of the Basque PP by recognizing him in the vicinity of a discotheque in the center of Vitoria. The events occurred on the night of Saturday, September 4, when Ander with some friends was in the vicinity of a disco in the center of Vitoria. As KGS approached, he asked him if he was "the posh of the PP" and then called him a "look", facts that the 20-year-old girl has accepted.

However, the defendant denies the aggression against the complaint of Ander, of two witnesses proposed by the prosecution and of the medical part of injuries that the PP militant claimed after the advice of the ertzainas who intervened in the events. According to García, members of the nightclub security

immobilized the detainee after punching her

and she was handed over to an Ertzaintza patrol that appeared at the scene of the alleged attack. The judge who is instructing this possible hate crime has also questioned

a witness proposed by the defense who has denied the aggression

and will carry out by videoconference in the coming weeks the testimony of a second witness proposed by the defense of KGS

The statements of those implicated and witnesses in the alleged assault come after the

Prosecutor's Office changed the initial classification of the facts from mild assault to hate crime

. The prosecutor present at the KGS interrogation has insisted that the alleged aggressor detail what she considers to be "facha".

The president of the Basque PP

Carlos Iturgaiz

has stated today in an interview on the Cope chain that he is glad that justice "has raised the charges" for the complaint filed by García Oñate and the Basque PP itself because, as he has said, "here there can be no double standards. " "Here there are crimes of hate, race, sex, gender, that are persecuted, and those of ideology cannot have a different standard as some claim," he has considered.

"If we want there to be a full coexistence and freedom in this land, it cannot be, as is happening in many cases, that there is a

trickle of threats, insults and crimes

that is being generated by the extreme left radical nationalist against young people of the PP, militants of the Basque PP or circumscribed to the Basque PP, "he stressed.

For her part, the secretary general of the popular Basques

Laura Garrido,

in statements to journalists in San Sebastián, has stressed that García Oñate "was precisely attacked because he was from the PP, not only was he attacked, but he

was

also

reprimanded and the attacker he issued proclamations in favor of ETA

".

"There are the facts and, obviously, the prosecution in this case will make their requests and justice will act," said Garrido, who has expressed the "concern" of his party because "we see these situations, in which members of the PP in Euskadi is already being several and especially in the territory of Álava they are there, they have not disappeared but they are happening ".
