Protests against the Israel-Premier Tech cycling team on the Return.
The judge of the Santiago Pedraz National High Court (AN) has ruled that he does not accept the complaint filed by theACOM Associationfor Action and Communication on the Middle East against the promoters of theboycott of the Israel-Premier Tech team in the cycling test for lack of competence to do so.
Pedraz has explained that, except in cases where there are clear indications from the outset of a crime which thelaw imputes to the National High Court, the rules of jurisdiction must be followed.
"In view of the foregoing, it is appropriate notto admit the complaint lodged, since the facts referred to cannot constitute one of the offences falling within the competence of the National High Court, since none of them falls within its competence ", as stated in article 65.1 of the Judicial Authority Organization Act .
ACOMreported last Friday in a statement that "instead of peaceful demonstrations", the protests by citizens against Israel over the massacre in Gaza "highlight organized violent acts, deliberate roadblocks and conduct that have endangered the physical integrity of athletes, members of the organization, spectators and security forces".
"These attacks constitute a systematic act of discrimination on the basis of nationality that contravenes the principles of equality, neutrality and security that must govern professional sport," the association said, stating that "turning Spanish roads into a scene of anti-Semitic persecution and lynching is unacceptable and will have legal consequences."
The complaint was filed against the protesters and the promoters and sponsors of , including the RESCOP/BDS network and the political parties EH Bildu, Podemos, Izquierda Unido and Sumar , for "actively promoting the exclusion of the Israeli group".
