The catastrophic floods in Valencia on October 29, which claimed 225 lives, have led to a political and judicial storm.

Salomé Pradas, the former Justice and Interior Minister of the Generalitat, is under investigation for her handling of the disaster.

Critics accuse her of negligence, citing delayed public alerts despite early warnings of the flood's severity.

Pradas, who was dismissed by President Carlos Mazón weeks after the tragedy, maintains she acted on technical advice and promises to reveal the full truth in court.

The investigation, which also implicates her former deputy Emilio Argüeso, focuses on potential charges of negligent homicide and injuries.

The case has intensified scrutiny on the Generalitat's emergency response and political accountability during one of Valencia's deadliest natural disasters.
