• GREAT CHARACTERS Santi Millán: as if we hadn't learned anything from Olvido Hormigos

  • The thermometer Olvido Hormigos: "They offered me 100,000 euros in exchange for sex"

The video of the altercation that occurred on Sunday at the exclusive La Moraleja golf club

, when a young Brazilian woman accompanying a member exhibited herself topless, being expelled by club employees, has gone viral, also becoming the talk of media gatherings .

The couple had lunch at the restaurant of the social chalet, and according to what a partner testifies to LOC, they seemed

"overwhelmed by drinks"

when they went to the pool, where they showed improper behavior.

"The girl spoke screaming, she confronted some ladies and her companion peed on the lawn."

The complaints of the partners were increasing, when the girl

took off her bikini top and walked defiantly with her breasts in the air.

An employee warned her that topless was prohibited, but she ignored it, so she was ordered to leave the premises.

Given her resistance, between an employee and the lifeguard they dragged her to the exit, where they got into a fight, a scene that was recorded by someone from the club, it is unknown if a member or employee, due to the passivity of her companion.

No spokesperson for the entity has made a statement, but there is dismay at the media coverage of the altercation, since the

Real Club de Golf de La Moraleja

is a high-class redoubt and boasts that "education, good treatment and the label" according to their website, as

"partners' own home extension".

Founded in 1973 by the aristocrat César de Zulueta and Antonio García as an English-style private club, with Julio Iglesias as a shareholder, it has 6,000 members.

In addition to its 4 fantastic 18-hole golf courses, it has 8 tennis courts, 12 paddle tennis courts, squash courts, swimming pools, a gym, a spa and two social chalets with a restaurant, as well as another for children.

World tournaments have been held there, the best golfers such as Severianos Ballesteros have competed, and

celebrities

such as the singer

Bing Crosby

,

who died of a heart attack after playing at the club, have visited it.

The anger, apart from damaging the image of the club,

can have serious legal consequences.

Not precisely for prohibiting the girl from exhibiting herself topless.

"It is a private area and it has its rules, in restaurants and nightclubs the right of admission is reserved and many beach bars prohibit eating in a swimsuit without a shirt," says Javier Timermans.

Opinion shared by the jurist Blanca Biezma, who took the case of Olvido Hormigos, although she clarifies:

"For some these norms may violate article 14 of the Constitution, which rejects all discrimination."

In 2018, King Felipe granted it the title of "royal" and is currently chaired by a friend of the monarch, Juan Pablo Ridruejo, who has dealt with serious economic problems, since the action,

which was worth 100,000 euros

, depreciated years ago to 20,000 and although today it has risen to 30,000, according to some partners, the venue has decreased in exclusivity.

Another issue is the altercation, where there was violence.

"Both parties lost their papers, but club employees should not have intervened if the girl refused to leave.

They had to call the police, who was responsible for reducing her

," says Timermans.

Quite serious for Biezma is that a video of the fight was recorded and, above all, it was widely disseminated.

"A recording of this type can be justified only if it is provided as evidence before a judge,

but if it is disseminated it can constitute a crime against privacy,

contemplated in article 197.7 of the penal code," says Biezma.

This article punishes the "artificial use of recording or reproduction" of the image without permission, aggravated if they are disseminated to third parties, and may carry a sentence of between two and five years in prison.

What jurists and partners do agree on is the moral responsibility of the girl's companion.

"His passivity was total, he just watched the scene as if it weren't with him, says a witness. He is a senior executive who

held important positions and takes over several financial entities.

They say he is experiencing a tense divorce from his wife. According to said source, "perhaps he brought the Brazilian to the club in revenge, even to prevent his ex from enjoying the action.

He didn't even pay the 40 euro invitation to the pool for the girl.

On Tuesday the board of directors met and promised to expel him definitively at the request of numerous partners.
