The national police have detained a man who is suspected of sexually assaulting at least two children in Madrid. The incident is linked to a school in the Aluche district, where the individual previously held a monitoring role.
According to information confirmed by EFE through La Sexta and corroborated by police sources, the man is 50 years old and originated from Venezuela. He was arrested on January 19 and subsequently released under precautionary measures after being handed over to the judicial authorities for ongoing proceedings.
Investigators from the National Police are continuing to examine the events in question. They have not ruled out the possibility that additional victims may come forward beyond the two that have already been reported by the victims’ families.
In response to the allegations, the Department of Education, Science and Universities of the Community of Madrid initiated an Educational Audit at the school to gather data about the circumstances and to assess any potential impact on students and staff. The ministry noted that the person arrested held a supervisory role and did not belong to the teaching staff at the center located in the Latina region.
Authorities have emphasized a careful, ongoing inquiry to determine the full scope of the incident and safeguard the school community. Officials urge anyone with information to come forward through proper channels, while continuing to support the families affected by this case. This situation has prompted school administrators to review safeguarding protocols and ensure that preventive measures are reinforced across schools in the region. The investigation remains active, and updates will be provided as more facts become available.
