Yesterday, the Guardia Civil arrested José Joaquin Moya, the socialist mayor of Bigastro along with three others (the secretary of the town hall Antonio Saseta and two industrialists, Manuel Nortes and José Pérez Moya) for a possible city planning crime.
After a three hour meeting in the town hall, officers of the Guardia Civil escorted the mayor and the three others into a waiting car and took them to the office of the Guardia Civil in Jacarilla.
The Valencian Socialist Party have suspended Moya as a precaution. The secretary of the PSPV-PSOE, Elena Martin explains that this is necessary to protect the party where a case of corruption has been implied.
The local secretary of the PP of Bigastro, Jose Antonio Ricart, has explained that the arrest is the result of one of the six denunciations that his party have made for possible city-planning crimes. However, it is not known yet which of the six the mayor has been arrested for. The most likely are either; the auction of rural land to to build an aparthotel along with 200 houses and a golf course at the Pedrera without authorisation by the Council of Environment and Urbanism or the permission granted to Eurener to build an assembly plant in a green zone.
NB
Manuel Nortes Hernández is a small constructor who has about a dozen employees; brother of Francisca Nortes, ex- socialist councilman in the previous municipal corporation.
José Pérez Moya is also a constructor in Bigastro known to have links with the Eurener who assemble solar panels.
As two of the commentaries in the newspaper Laverdad put it:-
Esto que sirva para todos el que juega con fuego se quema.
El que robe que la pague.
