Gamarra demands “political consequences” of a decision that was also political and Edmundo Bal dismisses all of Marlaska’s actions in the case of the Civil Guard colonel as “absolute negligence”. Vox joins the request for immediate resignation
The opposition comes out in a storm to ask the resignation of the Minister of the Interior after the Supreme Court has annulled the dismissal of the colonel of the Civil Guard Diego Perez de los Cobos at the head of the Madrid Command in May 2020.
