Short has been the passage of Amaia Izko in the Pamplona city Hall as alderman of EH Bildu . The lawyer was one of the big bets of Joseba Asirón, former mayor of the capital of navarre, in the face of the may elections. But the succession of events that has taken place in the last few hours has disrupted the plans of the governor’s pro-sovereignty, which shall deliver its certificate of mayor after recognizing in the National court that, indeed, he was among the link between the prisoners and the dome of the ETA .
Izko is an old known in the world of radical basque nationalism. Mainly for its defense of eta as Ines del Rio , which are attributed to more than twenty murders. The lawyer, who earned his bachelor’s degree at the University of Navarra, was one of the main responsible of the cancellation of the “doctrine Parot”, according to which the redemptions of conviction is applied on the total of the penalty imposed and not on the maximum limit of compliance, which in Spain is 40 years. The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) accepted the appeal of the defence of The River.
Other customers of Izko were Igor Portu and Martín Sarasola , condemned for attempt at the T-4 of Barajas Airport in 2006.

Another of the objectives of Izko was the current minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska , who he accused on several occasions to allow the torture when he served as magistrate in the Audiencia Nacional.
