Hate Crime: Man in Malaga Says it Was 'Just a Joke' Credit: Twitter @PabloIglesias
THIS Thursday the Ministry of Interior launched an investigation to find who the author of this horrid and morbid video was.
The video went viral on social media and shows a man practising his shooting target with images of the heads of state, including, Pedro Sanchez, the prime-minister, Pablo Iglesias, the second in commands, Irene Montero, the Minister of Equality, Fernando Granda-Marlaskala, the Minister of Interior and Pablo Echenique a spokesperson for the Podemos party.
In the video, you can hear the man recording laugh and refer to the fact that it is time to “sentence” the politicians, which is when the other man takes the shotgun and hits the targets one by one.
The government has expressed its “total rejection and condemnation” of these images which contain “serious threats and sow hatred,” they have now launched an investigation.
