The mayor of Cartagena, José López, has appeared before the media late this morning to report that he had just received a summons to declare next May 22 by a complaint.
The communiqué that the mayor has read to the informants has been the following:
"I have received a summons to testify in court on May 22 for a complaint filed by Fernando Mateo Asensio, who I do not know if he maintains his position as director general of Educational Quality and Professional Training in the Ministry of Education .
The facts that I denounced happened on March 1, 2016, which I was able to verify because it was that afternoon when I wrote to the Minister of Education to inform him about Mr. Mateo's behavior and to request that he be removed from his position, which I reiterated. days after.
To contextualize the situation, in those days, this man was the person who prevented the transfer of the retort of the Peral submarine for the roundabout of Cartagena, and maintained a hostile and unfounded attitude, complicating an agreement that was already reached, and that Finally got to a good end when, with good skill on the part of the Ministry, was removed from the negotiation.
On March 1, when we were attending a luncheon at the School of Hospitality, Mr. Mateo, visibly nervous and excited, addressed me in a chubby and defiant attitude, with references to the submarine, the center and his decision on both , Trying to annoy me and even humiliate the city of Cartagena with their mockery and comments.
The meal ran with the tension of sharing a table with someone whom I warned not to drive by.
At the end of it, I tried to keep a cordial conversation with him, with some companions, to close the unpleasant event, to which he refused, violently abandoning the place, insulting my family and me.
It is true that I made the mistake of demanding explanations for it and went after him, entering into his provocation, and that in the persistence of insult and provocation there could even have been some physical collision that did not finally occur.
This mayor is no ice, nor willingly accept the insult, and when they fail to respect his city, his family and his person, he reacts vehemently, and it was so and I will explain it in detail in court, if the matter Is not filed before the month of May, although these legal issues leave for the understanding.
I understand loyalty and honor, I do not like who tries to obtain political returns from provocation, and less who disrespect.
If that day had been escorted, this man would have been arrested with total certainty for his behavior, as I could denounce him and I did not to give him the role he does not deserve.
Today, my relationship with the regional government is correct and cordial, cooperative and in matters such as the submarine has been possible when someone like Mr. Mateo has been removed from the dialogue and, Of course, a power of decision that neither has nor had, and with which tried to intimidate and condition the work of this mayor and relations between administrations.
I leave a copy of the letter that afternoon that I sent the counselor to understand the nature of what happened and in any case value my response to the insult and provocation of who has been sued against me a year later.
