The complaint of the association against Islamophobia has been referred to the Court of Inquiry No. 1 in Madrid, after carrying out the corresponding investigations and investigations. As explained by this association, the complaint is based on a series of Couceiro writings that have shown symptoms of Islamophobia and hate crimes.

Couceiro has joined the PP of Bizkaia – the list has not yet confirmed the place where he has gone – but his political career is far behind him. In Portugalete, he was a candidate for the mayor of the Freedom Party, a far-right party, linked to the Clean Hands union in 2015. In particular, in those presidential elections he participated in a campaign to combat immigration and Islam.

According to several media reports, Raquel Gónzalez came to the presidency of the pp of Bizkaia and was made with the portugaluja to counteract the thrust of VOX: “In this way, it has aligned the People’s Party with the far-right ideas it shows on its social networks – the Muslims say against Islamophobia – to compete in an election race that may be attractive to some voters.”
