The prosecutor in the Pujol family trial stated this morning that "Political issues cannot be introduced into a procedural, legal, and substantive matter such as the investigation and prosecution of crimes." The statement is so perfect that if you asked an actor to say it... Poland And adding canned laughter in the background would work as a gag.
The jurisprudence cited by the prosecutor for this assertion included, of course, a passage from the Supreme Court's ruling in the Trial, which states that it would be a "mistake" to base oneself on a "contextual assumption that would explain everything." Well, the contextual assumption of the Pujol case doesn't preclude the possibility that they may have committed economic crimes. But Spain only began to take an interest when the context was the enormous snowball effect of the Trial, in which thepatriotic policeRecordings from a restaurant flower vase and even a text message to the Spanish Prime Minister's chief of staff. This doesn't explain everything, but it explains quite a lot.
Because, speaking of contextualizing factors, the prosecutor uttered these words the same morning that TVE broadcast a recording of the presiding judge of the court that convicted the Attorney General saying goodbye to some students on a course, telling them they should laugh with a general who had to "strike a pose" (applause). But now even the Socialists are demonstrating with signs against the lawfareThis is the drama that makes some phrases seem like they're from a comedy at this point.
