• 20th anniversary The last girl victim of ETA: "You only saw her little eyes and she said: mom"

Toñi Santiago, mother of the last girl killed by ETA, has called for the resignation of the leaders of Vox in Alicante for having given, according to a complaint, the order not to attend the tribute for the 20th anniversary of the attack that ended the life of his six-year-old daughter in an attack on the Civil Guard headquarters in

Santa Pola

.

The event was held on August 4 in the town of Alicante in memory of

Silvia Martínez Santiago

, daughter of Toñi and a civil guard.

Cecilio Gallego Alaminos

, a 57-year-old retiree who was waiting at the bus stop,

also died in that explosion , and more than 30 people were injured.

Local leaders of the PP and PSOE attended the commemoration for the 20th anniversary, such as the mayor,

Loreto Serrano

(

popular

), but no Vox positions.

For this reason, Toñi Santiago has published a video on Facebook in which he harshly charges the formation and its national leader, Santiago Abascal, for having "deceived" citizens by proclaiming "from the rooftops that they are defenders of the victims of terrorism " Nothing could be further from the truth".

Contacted by this newspaper, Vox has refused to comment on this matter and prefers to remain silent.

Not even to clarify if someone went on his behalf to the aforementioned tribute.

The relationship of the local leaders of Vox with the mother is marked by tension and confrontation.

And it is that, the councilor of the party in Santa Pola,

Mireia Moya

, and Toñi Santiago have filed complaints for threats.

As a result of her differences with Vox, the mother of the murdered girl has been detached from the formation for a long time.

Now, in his video, the victim of ETA specifically points to

Ana Campos

and

Mario Ortolá

, members of the Vox Alicante leadership, as the people who gave the order not to attend the tribute, according to a news item that is made " echo".

"They have been portrayed," she says, who reproaches that "it is what they get to do" when someone does not commune with them.

For this reason, she affirms that they resign from their positions "because they are deceiving the citizenry."

Toñi Santiago raises his criticism of the national leader of Vox.

"To what you have come Santiago Abascal, what a pity," he recriminates.

Next, he mentions his father and says that "if he were born again he would die of grief".

"He was a great man and a great fighter for the defense of the victims of terrorism, which is something that you have not inherited from him," he concludes.
