From our political formations, we are astonished at the news of the dismissal of a soldier assigned to the military base of Sewer after having denounced constant signs of sexual harassment on the part of his superior.
According to the victim, who has been denouncing this situation for several years, the stalker masturbated in his presence and proposed to have sexual intercourse continuously.
At first the disbelief, and then the absolute helplessness were the only answers to his denunciations.
Josetxu Durán, Coordinator of IU-Verdes and Jana Lorenzo, Political Secretary of the Nucleus of the PCE in Alcantarilla have agreed in declaring that "we want to show all our support to the military, which despite its courage to denounce, has suffered the burden of everything the machismo that is still present in institutions like the army ".
From IU Verdes and the PCE we demand their immediate incorporation to the job when their mental health allows it, as well as the opening of file to the harasser for the aggressions committed.
The state has a duty to ensure that the Army and all institutions are safe spaces for women.
We will not stop until we get it.
