The Valencian President, Carlos Mazónhe has held different versions about what the afternoon of 29-o did while 227 citizens of localities of the West and South València lost their lives for the Dana. First he said that he arrived at the Integrated Operational Cooperation Center (Cecopi) after 19.00- he convened two hours before- so that no one could think that the highest authority of the territory had not supervised the management of the catastrophe. But later, when the Judge of Catarroja investigates the deaths focused its instruction on the message is alert “wrong and late” sent from the agency that coordinated the emergency at 20.11, the president hastened to get away from the scene explaining that, in reality, he appeared in the Cecopi at 20.28, contributing an image of the security chamber of the emergency headquarters in the emergency headquarters in L’Al I would prove it. Both Mazón himself, and his former emergency council, Salome Pradas, and the former regional secretary of Emilio Argüeso (these last two in his statement as accused) have denied that the president had participated in the preparation and sending of that message.
