PalmA temporary civil servant with the Consell de Mallorca (Island Council of Mallorca) has filed a criminal complaint in the Palma courts against several officials of the island institution and against the company Quirón, whom she accuses of alleged crimes of administrative misconduct and disclosure of secrets within the framework of a disciplinary proceeding opened against her for a supposed conflict of interest. The complaint is directed against Quirón's legal representative, the company itself, the island director of Public Service, the technical secretary of the Presidency – who acted as the investigating officer in the disciplinary proceedings – and the Consell de Mallorca as a legal entity. According to the document, the events date back to April 2024, when the Council initiated disciplinary proceedings against the civil servant, head of the Sports Medicine Service, for alleged breaches of working hours and for simultaneously providing services to both the Council and Quirón without having requested authorization. The plaintiff maintains that the proceedings are arbitrary and selective, alleging that other professionals in the same field have faced similar situations without being sanctioned. One of the central points of the complaint is how, during the investigation, the Administration allegedly obtained specially protected data without consent, such as the employee's work history report and social security contribution record, through the General Treasury of Social Security. The defense argues that this action not only violates data protection regulations but could also have criminal implications. The complaint also alleges the transfer of personal information to Quirón without the affected party's authorization or legal basis. This information allegedly includes a report from a private investigator hired by the Council itself to monitor the civil servant. According to the complaint, the data in this report was used by Quirón to justify the employee's dismissal, and the dismissal letter, according to the defense, reproduces details of the surveillance verbatim.

Furthermore, the civil servant claims that the initiation of the disciplinary proceedings was retaliation for having previously reported an alleged breach of contract within the Administration, which, in her view, violates her right to immunity from prosecution. The proceedings culminated in sanctions of suspension from duties and salary totaling more than four years.

The appeal against the sanction was dismissed by the Consell de Mallorca, and the employee has also filed an administrative appeal, which is still pending resolution. In parallel, the criminal complaint requests investigative measures such as the statements of the accused, the complete submission of the files, and a forensic assessment of the civil servant's state of health, as she claims to suffer from an anxiety-depressive disorder resulting from the events.
