Canarian Coalition has placed the former mayor of Arona Jose Alberto Gonzalez Reveronsentenced three times for corruption and disqualified from holding public office, on the front line of an electoral act in that municipality in the south of Tenerife.
In a photo released by the formation itself this Saturday morning, González Reverón appears in the center of the image with the candidate for Mayor of Arona, Clari Pérez, to his right, and the candidate for the Presidency of the Cabildo de Tenerife, Rosa Dávila, former Minister of Finance of the Government of the Canary Islands, to her left.
“We are proud of Berto Reverón, of the great legacy he left in Arona, a reference for CC,” Dávila said a few months ago in an interview on Onda Guanche published in Diario de Avisos. And he added: “He will not be on the front line, but he will pitch in from the outside and help us in the elections, they cannot disqualify him from that.”
In October 2018, González Reverón was firmly sentenced to 17 years of disqualification for continued prevarication in the so-called Arona case for the granting of more than 200 illegal licenses and 75 irregular contracts.
It was not the first. In 2012 he was sentenced in the so-called Enchufe case for having hired two external workers by hand without putting the positions out to competition. That time he was disqualified to four and a half years of disqualification for prevarication.
After resigning and returning to his private activity in a financial institution, González Reverón was prosecuted again in 2015 for allowing illegal works in the luxurious Sir Anthony hotel. He was sentenced to seven years of disqualification.
