Madrid“It is difficult to understand the operation developed by <a href="https://www.archysport.com/2024/02/victor-de-aldama-president-of-zamora-cf-arrested-for-alleged-commission-collection/" title="Víctor de Aldama, president of Zamora CF, arrested for alleged commission collection”>Koldo García and Víctor de Aldama without the participation of José Luis Ábalos.” With this clarity, the Anticorruption Prosecutor maintains that the former Minister of Transport should be investigated for criminal organization, influence peddling and bribery before the Supreme Court. The day after the public ministry’s request to the National Court became known, the letter was made public in which the prosecutor Luis Pastor emphasizes that the former number 3 of the PSOE played a “main role” in the framed The Public Prosecutor’s Office is using the Civil Guard’s report submitted last week to the case, which is based on revelations of the conversations held by the protagonists of the plot and also on the testimony of some officials of the Ministry of Transport, who have declared throughout the instruction that what Koldo, former adviser to Ábalos, decided was always “endorsed” by the minister.
The evidence is sufficient in the eyes of the prosecutor due to the fact that meetings and conversations have been detected in which Ábalos also participated, called the boss by Aldama. The public ministry also notes that the still deputy in Congress enjoyed a villa in Cadiz and his partner at the time a flat in Madrid, as well as employment contracts from public companies linked to the ministry. “You can imagine how I feel thinking that there were people who were stealing next door”, said the second vice-president and promoter of Sumar, Yolanda Díaz, in an event on Thursday. In the coming days, the judge will have to decide whether to go to the Supreme Court to impeach Ábalos.
At the same time, also in the National Court, the Prosecutor’s Office has submitted a written statement in which it objects to the admission of the complaint of the PP against the PSOE for alleged illegal financing. The complaint was based on a news item from the digital media The Objective which was based on the anonymous testimony of an alleged businessman who claimed to have delivered bags with 90,000 euros to the Ferraz headquarters, and may end up going down the drain. Some leader of the PP already assumed on Wednesday the scenario that the judge Santiago Pedraz archived it, but they defended having done so. In addition, Alberto Núñez Feijóo warned from Brussels this Thursday that more information may appear in the coming days that may provide clues, although he did not give details. “The important thing about a complaint is not how it starts, but how it ends,” he warned.
