This morning the local edition of the newspaper 'La Verdad' echoed the order issued by the magistrate holder of the Court of Instruction number 7 of Murcia in relation to the "possible responsibility of the Autonomous Community in the delay for eight years of the works of closure and environmental restoration of the Los Blancos landfill (Llano del Beal) ".
It should be remembered that up to one million tons of mining waste from the old Jenny raft were moved there, staying outdoors for more than ten years.
In relation to this information, the order refers to "characteristics that presume the possible existence of crimes against natural resources and the environment."
In this context, the judge has asked the Prosecutor to "give names and surnames" to the people who intervened or made decisions from the Ministry of Environment.
Twenty-five years of a catastrophe caused by PSOE and PP
The president of MC Cartagena, Jesús Giménez, has valued the new known facts about one of the environmental stumbling blocks of the PP, which brings back to the news that these 'policies' generate a risk to the health of citizens.
Thus, Giménez has begun by stating that "El Llano del Beal could be considered the 'zero zone' of any environmental disaster because it combines the existence of heavy metals with its influence in the Mar Menor and in the population, especially children with high levels of blood lead. "
He then stressed that "the Campo de Cartagena, the entire region, is the epicenter of a catastrophe caused by regional governments, first of the PSOE and, for 25 years, of the PP".
The Cartagenerist leader has continued to remember what these 'policies' have been that have brought us to the current situation.
"The closure without decontaminating the lands of the urban belt factories and mining operations; or the lack of control over the industries have been the hallmark of these governments, servile with the business while they have despised people and nature, as it happened with Portman and, now, with the Mar Menor. "
Research and debug responsibilities
Subsequently, in relation to the will of the magistrate to identify those responsible for the lack of sealing of the 'Jenny' raft, the president of MC has wished "the collaboration of López Miras with Justice, because we are very afraid that he will blame to the Romans before accepting their ineptitude for management. "
He has concluded by advancing that, in a municipal code, "we are finalizing the document that we are going to present to force an extraordinary plenary session in which its Cartagena fugitives stop being silent against those who suffocate us."
