Olegario Ramón, former mayor of Ponferrada, was attacked in front of far-right protesters. Two people were arrested this Friday for their alleged involvement in the events.

Ramón suffers minor injuries and pain in a finger and, above all, great “concern” about the drift of political tension. The victim has received support from leaders of the PP and Vox, parties that he blames for “lighting the fire” with the accusations against the PSOE. The leader of Vox in Castilla y León, Juan García-Gallardo, has condemned the events on the social network Violence against the political opponent should not be the answer, writes García Gallardo on his Facebook page. The PP has condemned events, but for his predecessor, Fernández Mañez, there are little words of little use when officials from Vox and the PP have participated in the concentrations of people in the streets of the towns of Castilla and León.
