The defendant David Sánchez leaves his position at the Legislature de Badajoz

New developments regarding Sánchez's brother. David Sánchez, brother of the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, has resigned from his position at the Badajoz Provincial Council. This was exclusively reported by Hoy Badajoz.

According to Vozpópuli, the musician has announced his resignation in a statement in which he claims it is a "unilateral" decision.

The resignation of the Prime Minister's brother comes just hours after the deadline for submitting bids ended, leaving the competition for the production of the Ópera Joven program, which was managed by David Azagra, without any offers.

Until this moment, he was leading the Performing Arts Office of the provincial council. This was a matter for which he was under investigation by Judge Beatriz Biedma. The magistrate stated that "everything seems to indicate that the position was created to be assigned to Mr. Sánchez."

Despite this, the brother remains under the scrutiny of Judge Biedma. In other words, Sánchez's brother's resignation "doesn't free him" from the investigation, as explained by El Confidencial.

The aforementioned judge emphasized "the unnecessary nature of his functions very soon, as it was not arranged for him to be replaced by another worker during his leave of absence and paternity leave."

This way, it would be suggesting that Sánchez's brother allegedly accessed his position at the Badajoz Provincial Council through favoritism.

In addition, it points out that "the existing indications of criminality have been corroborated by the investigative proceedings already carried out." The judge theorizes that, from the beginning, there has been favoritism toward Sánchez's brother.

Furthermore, it also points to Juana Cintas, director of Human Resources. Allegedly, she had a "participation consisting of giving an appearance of legality to the administrative procedure that aimed to appoint Mr. Sánchez as senior management staff."

Let's remember that the Investigating Court Number 3 of Badajoz is conducting the investigation into the hiring of the Prime Minister's brother. Also under investigation are the president of the Provincial Council and secretary general of the PSOE of Extremadura, Miguel Ángel Gallardo, along with seven other people. The complaint, which was filed by Manos Limpias, has subsequently received support from Vox and the PP.
