Raúl Quílez Resigns From Valencian Emergencies After Testifying on Cecopi Videos

The resignation follows testimony about delayed Cecopi recordings in the ongoing court probe.

Overview

  • Raúl Quílez, director general for Innovation in Emergencies, requested his removal, which the Conselleria confirmed as part of an internal shake-up.
  • In court last week, Quílez said he accessed Cecopi meeting videos in March 2025, though they were not sent to the Catarroja court until early October 2025.
  • The recordings were made by a producer contracted by SGISE and became public only after RTVE aired audio and images in September 2025.
  • Quílez questioned former consellera Salomé Pradas’ actions during the October 29, 2024 dana response and described his own role at Cecopi as marginal.
  • The Valencian government is weighing the future of secretary of Emergencies Irene Rodríguez, who certified in March that no Cecopi videos existed, as the judicial investigation led by Court No. 3 of Catarroja continues.
