Bernabé: “When Mazón was supposed to be in El Ventorro, people were already dying in Utiel”
The Government delegate, Pilar Bernabé, has responded to the president of the Generalitat who accused her this morning of lying about her presence at the Cecopi before the alarm was sent (the spokesperson for the Consell, Susana Camarero, already did so yesterday). Bernabé has not specified at what time she saw the president in the command centre and has reiterated that she has always said the same thing that “when the alert was sent” she saw him.

However, Bernabé did not miss the opportunity to attack Mazón and to emphasise that “when he was supposed to be in Ventorro, people were already dying in Utiel”. The Government delegate emphasised that the president , who is “the one who directs, presides over and coordinates this Community and the emergency” will have to say what he did “in all that time” until he arrived at Cecopi. He arrived at 8:28 p.m., as he himself confirmed this Wednesday. Bernabé asked himself very graphically “and if he is not the one who directs the community, what has he run for in the elections? Weddings, baptisms and communions?”
Denying that she had “ever” said that Mazón arrived before sending the alert to the cell phones, Bernabé explained that at approximately 7:30 p.m. the connection of those who, like her, were connected to Cecopi telematically, “to write the content of the message,” went black again.
She did clarify that the connection was restored before the alert reached the phones. Before that disconnection, she explained, she defended that the SMS be sent to the whole province and not just to the Ribera, as some suggested, and expressed her concern about how it would reach the areas where there was no coverage, since some of the mayors she was speaking to were already warning of coverage problems.
