UPN denounces assault on a councilman at Burlada parties
UPN has reported that on Saturday Carlos Oto, a councillor of the Burlada City Council, was physically assaulted during the local holidays. The regionalist party has explained that the aggressor entered the UPN headquarters when several members of the party and other people were gathered in a festive atmosphere and struck the councilman in the chest, forcing him to go to the health services.
According to UPN, the attacker uttered cries of "UPN out", "sons of a whore" and "fachas". The party explains that the incident ended with police intervention. UPN declares them "unacceptable in democracy" and urges all political parties to condemn the events. It also expresses its support for Carlos Oto and the entire "regionalist family" of Burlada.
Navarra's president, María Chivite, has also condemned the attack and expressed her support and solidarity with the councillor and UPN. "Violence has had no place in our society," she said on social media. Geroa Bai has also made a "clear and unequivocal condemnation" and the Navarre People's Party has strongly condemned the attack.
UPN warns of the need to "completely eradicate" physical and verbal violence against its representatives and stresses that the holidays are moments of "good atmosphere, coexistence and respect." The party encourages Carlos Oto and the other representatives of Burlada to continue working for the citizens and calls for those responsible for this type of aggression not to go unpunished.
