Santa Cruz de Tenerife (EFE) her son and the person with whom he had a fight, waiting for the circumstances to be clarified at trial.
The son and his contender in the brawl are charged with alleged assaults, in a fight that took place on June 8, 2022 at 04:30 a.m. on Avenida de Anaga in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, outside the Karaoke nightclub.
According to the judge, who provisionally archives the proceedings opened against Casimiro Curbelo, the regional deputy and leader of the Agrupación Socialista Gomera intervened only to try to separate the two.
The judicial investigation, carried out by magistrate Alejandro Carrillo Ginoria, starts from a report on a mutual aggression from which the existence of a criminal offense could be derived.
The judge charges one of the contestants with a crime of injuries caused to the son of Casimiro Curbelo, who he punched in the face that caused injuries that required suturing a wound in the upper part of the lip.
In turn, the son of the politician from La Gomera was charged by the judge with a minor offense of injury, by punching and grabbing the other contender’s hair, causing injuries that did not require medical treatment, although he lost his glasses in the fight.
Regarding who started the fight, if there was a previous provocation and the rest of the circumstances, the judge points out that all defense aspects must be assessed in the corresponding trial.
The magistrate points out that in the case of Casimiro Curbelo “there is not a minimum indication of his participation in the aggression.”
All the witnesses, even those who are not related to him or his son, have stated that the attack was reciprocal between the other two, without the participation of the president of the Cabildo de La Gomera or any other companion of his son.
Initially, Curbelo was charged with the statement of the person who had a fight with his son, who said that the father had also assaulted him, although later, in his court statement, he could not specify whether he was really assaulting him or was trying to separate them.
This lack of specificity and the statement of the rest of the witnesses, who said that there were several people who tried to separate the contenders, “prevents an indicative appreciation that this investigated acted with the intention of undermining the personal integrity of the injured party,” the court order states.
The judge adds that in the video about these events it is clearly observed that Casimiro Curbelo “approaches the place where the aggressors had arrived in the brawl and, after being separated, calms down his son”, without addressing his opponent at any time. . EFE
