Synopsis

In early 2020, at least four officers from the National Police infiltrated various social movements in the Catalan Countries. Under false identities, María Perelló arrives in Girona, Ramón Martínez in Valencia, and Daniel Hernández and Marc Hernández in Barcelona. All four are part of the 33rd class of the Ávila Police Academy and operate under the orders of the General Commissariat of Information. Two years later, a journalistic investigation by the Directa reveals the real identities and backgrounds of these officers.

The report Infiltrated, broadcast on the TV3 program 30 Minuts (January 2025), sparks a debate about these types of operations and reveals, for the first time, the mistakes they made, which were key to exposing them. It also addresses the impact of these infiltrations on the collectives and individuals who were spied on, through interviews with affected parties, lawyers, experts, and police officers.
