Criticism
The “Organic Act of Integrated Protection Measures against Gender Violence” resulted in an epidemic of false allegations against innocent men. Judge Maria Sanahuja said: “The gender violence law is a disgusting violation of human rights in Spain. It is a madness that creates abuse and destroys the burden of proof. We are abusing thousands of children, thousands of fathers, thousands of men, thousands of grandfathers”.[3] Judge Francisco Serrano Castro said “a penal code with different laws for different categories of persons existed in 20th century Europe only under Nazism and Stalinism. [...] Illegal detentions, suicides of men – this is genocide. Society does not realize that human rights are being violated”.[4]
