- Gipuzkoa Culture Deputy Harkaitz Millan was dismissed on Sunday morning from a pub in San Sebastian for "disturbing and insulting" a woman. They called the police and then arrested her because, according to the officers, she faced an ertzaina. He spent the night at Ondarreta's headquarters accusing him of "an attack on authority." Sunday he resigns and asks for forgiveness. She tells the press that she feels "amazing" that the woman has been "upset," claiming she's gay.
Gipuzkoa Deputy General, Markel Olano, has accepted the resignation of PSE-EE Millan Deputy for Culture, Youth and Sports after hearing the “serious events”. She will be represented by Maria Jose Telleria, so far Director-General of Culture of the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa.
In Milla he was expelled from a pub on the Paseo de Salamanca in San Sebastian, early Sunday, “for a clash with a woman”. In fact, the media has pointed out that it “annoyed and insulted” him, but Millán has told the Basque Journal that he does not believe this happened. She does not believe that gay men can "disturb" women and uses this argument to defend herself: “Clearly stated, I am gay and I don’t think I bothered a woman, I find it quite amazing. But in any case, they took me out of the bar for whatever it was and the security officer called the police,” the former deputy said.
Police arrested her on charges of “attack on the authorities” because, according to the Ertzaintza, she was directed at an agent. Millán has assumed what happened and asked for forgiveness, but has stressed that he cannot “say much more” because he doesn’t remember “almost nothing”: “I don’t know if someone dumped anything in the drink or not... I don't know, because I have a few hours of emptiness, I don't remember."
The Deputy General, Olano, has made it clear that “this kind of fact has no place” in the deputation, saying that the Deputy has been “for years in favor of an exemplary foral government”. Millan announces that he is currently out of the public spotlight.
