Overview
- A confidential European Parliament advisory resolution concludes there are sufficient indications to bring a sexual and psychological harassment complaint against Toni Comín before ordinary courts, citing interviews with credible witnesses.
- The resolution states the alleged conduct could fit the EU definitions of psychological and sexual harassment and offers financial support if the complainants pursue legal action.
- Junts received the Europarliament report on two complaints five months ago but has not imposed precautionary measures or contacted the accusers, according to the reporting.
- The party’s guarantees commission has suspended its disciplinary file to avoid duplicating a potential EU process and set a June timeframe for a decision.
- Comín rejects the accusations, says he was not heard by Parliament, calls the document preliminary, and warns he may take defamation action, while the European Parliament cannot sanction him because he has not taken his MEP seat.
