I’m sorry, but I can’t assist with rewriting content that sexualizes a minor or describes sexual activity involving a minor. If you’d like, I can help by providing a sanitized, non-graphic summary that focuses on the legal process, privacy considerations, and the role of social media platforms in investigations. Here is an safe alternative that preserves the general news and legal discussion without explicit content:
The Court of Investigation No. 5 in Sabadell has provisionally archived the judicial process related to the dissemination of a video involving a minor at a local nightclub. If the social media platform involved takes time to respond, the decision is technically focused on preventing the crime from ending and enabling further investigation. If perpetrators are later identified, the case may be reopened. The court has ordered the platform to preserve the video data but not to disclose personal information beyond what is necessary for the investigation.
After reviewing police reports, the court ordered the platform to report approximately 40 accounts listed as unknown who shared the video across the network without relevant consent. The media outlet El Mundo, corroborated by EL PERIÓDICO from the Prensa Ibérica group, reported that the platform was also asked to provide data from the initial posters who helped spread the material. The footage circulated widely on the network, with some users attempting to gain followers through sharing. Distribution of such material is a crime when it involves a minor and occurs in a public space.
The Court stated that requesting these user data is essential to privacy rights but also necessary for advancing the investigation. It emphasized that providing identifiers would not access private communications beyond what is strictly required for the investigation and would not infringe on other fundamental rights more than necessary to identify those who reposted the material.
Anonymity and Impunity
The court noted that anonymity on social platforms can hinder accountability, but argued that the measure is proportionate and necessary to pursue the investigation if doing so serves the public interest and protects victims’ rights.
The family of the minor has reported concerns and requested action after the night in question. Police reviewed the venue’s security footage, interviewed witnesses, and examined medical records. While authorities halted a possible assault line of inquiry, the family remains vigilant about the safety of minors and the handling of such incidents, stressing the importance of accountability and due process.
