The Vote of Censorship against Josep Maria Bartomeu and his Board of Directors gets dirty. Despite the 19,380 validated signatures, which far exceed the 16,521 necessary for the motion to continue, Barça maintains its complaint to the Civil Guard for a possible falsification of documents and theft of identity in a package of about 300 signatures.
'La Vanguardia' explains this Friday that a Barça employee expressly called Lieutenant Colonel Baena (“scourge of independence,” explains this newspaper) to explain the doubts about the veracity of a number of signatures. It was then that the two members of the Board of the Vote of No confidence that belong to the Barça board, Marta Plana and Jordi Argemí, asked the president of the Board, Josep Maria Vallbona, to paralyze the process. This decided to continue with the consent of Jordi Farré and Josep Triadó, the representatives of the promoters of the motion at the Table. But the complaint went ahead.
The complaint went ahead and was forged in a block of five signatures that have a very written spelling (it could be from the same person). The suspicion spread to a package of 300 signatures. Despite the fact that there is a cushion of almost 3,000 signatures, a judge could paralyze the Vote of Censorship if he saw evidence of a crime.
Barça is convinced that there are blocks of non-authentic ballots. The platform More than a Moció is outraged. “It is the saddest day of my life”, said this Thursday night Jordi Farré, who nevertheless is convinced that nothing will stop the process: “I want the case and the complaint to go to the end. Let whoever calls me call me. I would not like to accuse anyone but I am sure that it comes from the same person who has convicted Josep Maria Bartomeu and everyone who understands what you understand “. It refers to Jaume Masferrer, advisor to the president and later director of the cabinet, who is also one of those singled out for hiring I3 Ventures at Barçagate.
The cause investigated by the Civil Guard has to do with Barça denounced in his day in the Courts for the existence of 2,800 cards of fraudulent subscribers who were used to illegally resell tickets. The continuity of the Motion is therefore in the hands of the Civil Guard, which must collect evidence and present them before a judge. It would be said judge who would decide whether to proceed with the investigation or dismiss it. If you want to investigate, the process can be paralyzed.
