Among other reasons, because Borràs's conviction is due to "an attitude of abuse of power" for favoring the economic benefit of a friend. "We are facing a crime that falls under the concept of administrative corruption and, therefore, hardly susceptible to benefiting from the right of pardon," says the prosecutor's report. It also reproaches him for claiming "without any shame, to have been the victim of judicial persecution" for his political ideas: "He presents himself as a victim of <em>lawfare</em> who has committed the crime with absolute abuse of authority and contempt for the law."</p>]]></description>
