The ‘comuns’ ask for up to six years in prison for the case of the Consell Esportiu de L’Hospitalet


  • The purples also claim four and a half years for the former PSC councilor Cristóbal Plaza for his supposedly simulated dismissal

The municipal group L’Hospitalet in Comú Podemwho exercises the popular accusation in the cause of Sports Council of L’Hospitalet de Llobregat (Barcelona), has called for condemning six years in prison to the former deputy mayor Christian Alcazarand four and a half years for the former PSC councilor Christopher Plaza for the allegedly simulated dismissal of the second as director of the Consell.

The indictment, to which Europa Press has had access and which they have presented this Friday, attributes to Alcázar an alleged embezzlement crime, Plaza an alleged fraud and both an alleged crime against Social Security. According to the ‘comuns’, in December 2016 Alcázar had exposed a positive economic closure of the entity, in the same assembly in which he announced that Plaza was leaving office and replacing him Eduard Gali.

They believe that Plaza and Alcázar drew up a “plan” so that the second would obtain an economic benefit with the supposedly simulated dismissal and from the subsidy that the Consell Esportiu should receive from the City Council of L’Hospitalet de Llobregat.

For this plan, they claim that Alcázar signed the dismissal of Plaza arguing economic and organizational reasons and later, the two allegedly signed “an agreement by which, given the company’s lack of liquidity, it would be paid 23,573.81 euros on June 30, 2017, and 23,573.81 euros on September 30 “.

The brief of the ‘comuns’ maintains that Alcázar and Plaza did not inform the decision-making bodies of the Consell or the City Council of this, “neither of the decision to fire Plaza with compensation nor of the amount that said compensation implied in the accounts Of the entity”.

The prosecution

This dismissal forms a separate piece of the cause of alleged corruption in the Consell Esportiu, and the City Council, appearing as an accusation in the case, has not presented an accusation for this piece.

Two weeks after the accusation of the Prosecutor’s Office was known, Alcázar left the act of councilor and resigned as second deputy mayor of the City Council and the position of first secretary of the PSC Federation in the city.
