For a carom. The chief of staff of San Bartolomé de Tirajana, Francisco Duque Morán, must present his resignation from this position this week to occupy the position of deputy for Las Palmas. Duque Morán, who is from Las Palmas, was a right-hand man of Ángel Víctor Torres when he was Minister of Public Works of Gran Canaria and found political accommodation in the south of the island after the regional electoral victory of the PSOE in 2019.
Mayor Narváez now has a free hand to appoint someone from Tirajana's PSOE as cabinet director with whom to face municipal re-election. The leadership of the PSOE has asked the Canarian regional leadership that there be no delays in the inauguration of Francisco Duque in view of the electoral campaign for the local and general elections.
Duque Morán is leaving as a deputy because Majorero Juan Bernardo Fuentes has resigned his seat in Congress after being involved in an anti-fraud operation carried out in the Canary Islands and which has resulted in the arrest of a former director general of the Canary Islands Government and a general of The retired Civil Guard investigated for his alleged relationship with the crimes of membership in a criminal organization, fraud and bribery.
Juan Bernardo Fuentes, who was a deputy for the province of Las Palmas, was general director of Livestock and was replaced by his nephew Taishet Fuentes, who is the main investigator of the plot for alleged fraud in subsidies for food products. After the investigation became known, the deputy was suspended from membership by the PSOE and he presented his resignation from the seat.
