Journalist Maribel Vilaplana testified that during the nearly four-hour lunch with Carlos Mazón on October 29, 2024, the day of the DANA flood that killed 229 people, the president was constantly on the phone, including WhatsApp, but did not mention the emergency. Mazón stepped out for calls he described as 'for the photo,' and Vilaplana felt political manipulation after the controversy. Her testimony reveals details about the president's 37 unaccountable minutes.
Spain's Public Prosecutor's Office supports former president Carlos Mazón joining the DANA flood investigation as a party. It argues that denying this would violate his right to defense. Prosecutor Cristóbal Melgarejo's report urges approval of Mazón's appeal.

Maribel Vilaplana, the journalist who lunched with Carlos Mazón during the October 2024 flood, retrieved her car from a central Valencia parking lot at 19:47, just 24 minutes before the Generalitat's mass alert. This detail, revealed in the judicial investigation, confirms changes in her testimonies and raises questions about the president's movements that day. The Catarroja judge is examining these facts in the context of the tragedy that killed 229 people.
