Spain's Minister of Transport and Urban Mobility, Óscar Puente, questioned the impartiality of the judge investigating the Ceuta case. Puente considered the magistrate's behavior in this judicial process "rather strange."
According to the report, the judge in question asked National Police investigators not to share the conclusions of the report prepared on the Ceuta case with police leadership. This action was interpreted by the minister as suspicious.
The Ceuta case refers to events involving the mass entry of migrants into the Spanish city of Ceuta, a Spanish territory in North Africa, in 2021. This episode generated great controversy and led to the opening of investigations into the circumstances and responsibilities involved.
Óscar Puente expressed his doubts about the judge's conduct, suggesting that she may not be impartial in conducting the investigative process. His statements come in the context of a broader debate about the management of the migratory phenomenon at the southern Spanish border.
