Earlier this week the Mayor of Mazarrón, Francisco Garcia, was forced to file a complaint against the Banco Santander because as he said "more than a month ago the decision to execute a guarantee of 4 million euros was made that the bank had provided to Aqualia, the company that manages the municipal water service. The bank was required to have entered the money before March 20, the first requirement of the City ".
The origin of this debt was some additional royalties that the company Aqualia paying annually should go to City Hall and refused to pay.
The matter ended up in court eventually obtaining a ruling that upheld the City Council having to pay the company said 4 million euros.
The refusal to pay the debt and as the Banco Santander was the company who endorsed what the City Hall did was claim those guarantees to the lender, the latter also refused to pay.
In this situation and with the idea of ​​defending municipal interests the mayor said he had no choice but to file a complaint because it was understood that money "which belongs to the City Council and therefore to all the neighbors of Mazarrón".
Four days later to file the complaint, the bank has responded agreeing with the Mayor, paying the amount requested.
