SPAIN POLITICS SEXUAL ASSAULT

Mas Madrid party press conference on sexual assault allegations against a former member

epa11688926 Representatives of the Mas Madrid party at the Madrid City Council, Rita Maestre (L) and Manuela Bergerot (R), alongside the Spanish Minister of Health and regional leader of the Mas Madrid party Monica Garcia, hold a press conference in Madrid, Spain, 28 October 2024. Maestre was previously in a relationship with Inigo Errejon when he was a prominent member of the Mas Madrid party. Errejon resigned on 24 October 2024 from his position as spokesperson for the leftist platform 'Sumar' amid allegations of sexual abuse. Errejon has been accused by actress and TV presenter Elisa Mouliaa, who reported the incident to the authorities, as well as by Spanish journalist Cristina Fallaras. The Mas Madrid party is currently facing criticism for allegedly being aware of Errejon's sexual harassment of women, a claim the party has refuted, stating that they were only informed of a minor incident a year prior, which they did not take seriously enough, and now recognize they should have.
