A Twitter account created this October of an alleged journalist named Joana Masdeu that nobody knows in the Parliament of Catalonia defamed Albert Batet, president of the Junts per Catalunya parliamentary group, and the former general secretary, Jordi Sànchez.
Sànchez has replied to the accusations and has offered for an interview with the alleged journalist, but shortly after the account has been deleted. “This is what I told you yesterday in the thread, Junts deputies have explained to me personally how for years Albert Batet has coerced them in his office to make them swear absolute fidelity, as Jordi Sànchez has threatened them with insults and contempt for any issue. ..”, they had written from that Twitter profile.
The journalists who cover Catalan political information do not know about it, nor do the Catalan political parties. This account, which among its first followers included Laura Borràs, president of Junts, one of her advisors in the Catalan Chamber or the deputy Jaume Alonso-Cuevillas, minimized and relativized the Dalmases incident this Tuesday in a chain of messages, after will leave the vice presidency of Junts. “As a journalist, I assure you that if the official or party positions with which I have discussed, from any party, also members of the Junts leadership who today called for the resignation of Francesc de Dalmases, had to resign, there would be very few left, “he said. .
Other people from Borràs’s entourage, such as Aurora Madaula, have followed this account, which appears to be false, and sources consulting JxCat directly accuse Borràs’s entourage of having launched this profile, as they had previously done with others. In fact, the headquarters of Junts appeared in the header of the account.
