The girls of the girl run over by the car of the Director General of Madrid will denounce the facts, which can have criminal consequences for the driver. In addition to allowing them to obtain compensation, the decision may be a conviction of mild crime of injuries, since this criminal type requires the victim’s complaint. Meanwhile, the family still had no news from the City Council on Monday late in the afternoon, although at noon Mayor José Luis Martínez Almeida had told journalists that they would be put “at their disposal for anything they could need.”
Almeida was pronounced for the first time on a case that affects the man directed by the Municipal Police since he came to power in 2019, Pablo Enrique Rodríguez, and his driver. The mayor asked for time to examine what happened, after a long weekend in which the country has revealed several indications of irregularity in the response to the incident. The leftist opposition and several police organizations have requested the cessation of Rodríguez.
The girl, aitana, 10, has both legs immobilized as a result of the blow: a broken ankle and a knee with possible fracture. The family, of limited resources, is being helped by the association of Neighbors Puerta del Ángel, which lent them this weekend a wheelchair. This has been a relief because the child had been headed since the accident. Aitana must return to the hospital on Wednesday for new radiography tests that allow you to know the diagnosis in the knee.
The little girl has not yet returned to class and is doing her duties online. “Keep with your little feet,” says his father, Jefferson. “We have the wheelchair but it is not what I might need. We have coupled a table. Of going to school, nothing for now. Give yourself that the girl to go to the bathroom can nobody help it.”
The parents already have two appointments with lawyers for this Tuesday and Wednesday, in order to denounce the police. This is an expected decision in victims of traffic accidents because it allows them to obtain compensation of those determined in a public scale that is updated every year and takes into account the scope of the lesion or the days off.
A lawyer specializing in accident victims, José Manuel Vidal, indicates that in addition to this compensation, the family complaint may have consequences for the driver because the slight crime of injuries of article 152.2 of the Criminal Code requires the victim’s complaint. In any case, he adds, it will be difficult to determine the rider’s responsibility because the speed at which he was or the avoidability of the accident by him or the girl cannot be found. The police accident research team only acted four days after the events, on Friday, hours after the country highlighted the absence of its intervention.
The possible penalty would consist of a withdrawal of the circulation permit between three and 18 months, as well as a fine of between one and two months, says Vidal, who works for the Stop Accidents association.
Aitana crossed with her mother a wide street of six lanes, the Paseo de Extremadura. His grandfather Fernando was waiting for them, who queued in a bazaar to buy some candles for the blackout. The clash occurred shortly after the blackout, when the traffic lights stopped working and the streets were flooded with confused people about what was happening. The mother, Johanna Cepeda, assures that they crossed through the passage of zebra and that the car where the director Rodríguez was traveling.
The country has tried to repeatedly achieve the version of director Rodríguez. The newspaper The world He published Monday that Rodríguez blamed the girl from the accident, holding that it was the youngest who fell and collided with his vehicle, a Skoda Superb.
Rodríguez, this controversy has come to him at a time of trouble. On April 3 he had to declare before a judge who investigates him for a case of possible amaño of some oppositions. His current partner, Ana Padilla, got the commissioner square in that selective process. He has declared that at the time of the evidence, in 2021, he did not have a romantic relationship with her, although “physical”, according to sources known to his statement. At that time, Padilla worked on Rodríguez’s team being attached to the General Directorate.
Two police organizations, APMU and UPM, are personally personally carried out since 2022 the Court of Instruction number 31 of Madrid.
On the outrage, Almeida declared that he still does not have the necessary documentation to make a decision. He was referring to the fact that until after 10 days the accident part prepared by the police patrol that intervened will not be finished. That period will have been fulfilled on Thursday.
