The specialists of the National Police observed deteriorated ropes in the

bouncy castle that overturned in Mislata

(Valencia) on January 4, causing the death of two girls who played on it, according to a report presented to the court that investigates these events.

As the Levante-EMV newspaper advanced this Friday and sources from the Police Headquarters of the Valencian Community have confirmed to EFE, the report includes what was pointed out by several

witnesses, who assure that they did not see that the attraction was tied to its right side

, the one that rose as a result of an intense gust of wind.

The report is accompanied by a photographic dossier in which

broken or torn straps

are observed that, apparently, must have been attached to a concrete block or a lamppost.

That document incorporates the testimony of the person in charge of the attraction, who assures that the inflatable had

seven fastening points

, four of them on the right side (tree, lamppost, concrete blocks and bench) and that he himself cut some ropes behind the accident.

However, the police have observed that some of these ropes do not have a knot at one end, so there are doubts as to whether they were really tied.

In addition, the parents of the minors who were using the attraction at the time of the accident have told the police that they do not remember the existence of ropes on the right side, since they were able to go through that side without avoiding any obstacle.

It is also stated that, at the time of the accident,

a single person controlled two attractions

: the inflatable and an adjoining trampoline station.

Sources from the Superior Police Headquarters of the Valencian Community have indicated that some other reports related to this accident, in which Vera, 4, and Cayetana, 8, died, while another seven minors still have to be contributed to the case. They needed hospital care.

The father of the second deceased girl, Iván Pérez, has expressed on social networks that the family will go "to the end to

purge responsibilities

in this tragedy that we are convinced could have been avoided."
