The Catarroja judge investigating the criminal case regarding the management of the DANA storm has required the Valencian Generalitat to detail which forest firefighter units from Valencia were mobilized on October 29, 2024, and if they were deployed in twelve of the municipalities most affected by the floods.

In a decree made public this Thursday by the Valencian High Court of Justice, the investigating judge has requested that the public company Sociedad Valenciana de Gestión Integral de Servicios de Emergencias (SGISE) be officially asked to report on the specific Forest Firefighter Units from the province of Valencia that were mobilized that day due to the DANA.
Specifically, the judge urges that it be specified whether the Forest Firefighter Units from Ontinyent, Xàtiva, Font de la Figuera, Rótova, Castelló de Rugat, Pedralba, Yátova, Requena, Sinarcas, Villargordo, Los Isidros, and Chelva were mobilized, as well as the time at which, if applicable, the mobilization took place.
Furthermore, the decree requests that the meteorologist from the Valencian public television channel, À Punt, Victoria Roselló, who testified this Wednesday before the judge, be informed of the possibility of voluntarily providing the content of the WhatsApp messages she sent to the news director regarding the emergency, given her expressed conformity during her statement.
Likewise, the investigating judge demands that the news services of À Punt be required to provide, by whoever is responsible, the videos from the L'Oratge program, dated October 27 and 28, 2024, where Roselló and her team participated as meteorologists, warning of the risk on October 29.
