The local council said the Mayor, Pablo Ruz, was sent to Elche General Hospital following a medical incident. In this context, the council’s spokesmen voted unanimously to postpone two plenary meetings planned for that day. The revised dates for both sessions will be announced in the next few days.
The acting mayor is the deputy mayor and councillor for Municipal Strategy Francisco Soler of the People’s Party. This ruling shall stay in force unless expressly reversed.
The same sources have transferred “thanks to everyone” from the Elche municipal council “for the treatment and respect shown in these days” after it became known about Ruz’s hospital hospitalisation.
