MÉS per Mallorca demands the resignation of Pedro Bestard for using official vehicles for personal matters
The party denounces that the vice-president of the Consell would have used official cars for personal uses and Vox events
PalmMÉS per Mallorca on Sunday called for the resignation of the Vice President of the Consell de Mallorca, Pedro Bestard (Vox), following the publication of information pointing to an alleged irregular use of official vehicles of the institution for personal travel and party activities.
According to the party's denunciation in a statement, these would be facts "of extreme gravity" that demonstrate an "intolerable appropriation of public resources". The party refers to information published by dltima Hora, which indicates that Bestard would be using two Consell vehicles for private use and to attend party events, despite them not being properly labeled, as required by regulations.
For MÉS, the issue goes beyond a possible breach of the island institution's internal rules. The party considers it to be behavior "incompatible with the exemplary conduct and institutional responsibility" required of any public official, especially in a government position.
In this regard, the spokesperson for MÉS per Mallorca in the Consell, Catalina Inés Perelló, has raised the tone and warned that, if this information is confirmed, "we would be facing an institutional scandal of the first order", insisting on the need to assume political responsibility.
