EH Bildu has recorded a question in the Congress of Deputies addressed to President Sánchez: “As President of the Spanish Government, do you recognize the torture done by the armed forces?” The spokeswoman for Geroa Bai, Uxue Barkos, has announced that she will ask the Government of Navarra what she will do about the information published and that the senator of this formation, Koldo Martínez, will ask for the appearance of the Minister of the Interior.

“We knew that Zabraise was tortured to death in Intxaurrondo, but it’s exciting that the Civil Guard’s commanders hear so naturally how they practiced this torture,” said Navarre Parliament spokesman Mikel Buil. “And what do all politicians, judges, journalists and the media have to say that for decades they have collaborated with torture and its impunity, accusing the allegations of torture of the false “ETA manual”?”, Arkaitz Rodríguez. “The audios that have been published about Mikel Zabraise’s torture are terrible. They have voiced a widespread #social truth in our country. It is necessary for the State, and the political and police leaders of the time, to recognize once and for all the damage caused”, the Social Forum.
