Show answer and explanation
✓ Cualquier persona, sea española o extranjera
Any person can make a complaint to the Defensor del Pueblo (the ombudsman), whatever their nationality or administrative situation. It is free and you do not need a lawyer. This is what sets it apart from other rights that only Spanish citizens have, such as voting. The trap in this question is thinking you have to be Spanish or a legal resident: that is not so.
