A Guardia Civil statement said: “It (the slaughter) was being treated like a party… without justification and without complying with the health and safety measures established in a State of Alarm.
“They were slaughtering a pig without carrying out any type of hygienic sanitary measure dictated by the authorities, and they also did not provide any documentation to justify their actions.”
The people gathered at the property in Las Navas de la Concepción were dispersed and denounced under State of Alarm regulations.
