This Is Sánchez's Brother's Opera That Counted on the Government's Fortune

Carrero was responsible for coordinating the execution of the project and its budget.

Sánchez's Brother Continues with New Controversies. Luis Carrero, an advisor at La Moncloa, and David Sánchez Pérez-Castejón, brother of President Pedro Sánchez, collaborated on the design of a project called Operegrina. This was aimed at promoting opera in towns near the border with Portugal.

This initiative, backed by the Ministry of Culture, had 90,000 euros allocated for its development. This is according to Okdiario. Carrero, who served in the Presidency of the Government, was responsible for coordinating the execution of the project and its budget.

According to emails intercepted by the Central Operational Unit (UCO) of the Civil Guard, it was revealed that Carrero intended to lead an area of "communication and cultural action." According to the newspaper, this position would have received an additional salary of 70,000 euros.

The Confession of the Witnesses

The witnesses assured Magistrate Beatriz Biedma that they 'almost never' saw the brother of the President of the Government working in his office. Specifically, seven witnesses have a point of agreement in their statements: they did not see David Sánchez working in his office regularly.

It is important to emphasize that the brother of the President of the Government was not authorized for remote work. This complicates the musician's situation before the judge who is making rapid progress in the case.

Among those summoned was violin professor Nerses Avakimyan, who testified early in the day. During his appearance, Avakimyan admitted that he never accessed the grades after the selection process.

Despite this, the musician stated that he did not feel harmed and also doesn't remember having coincided in interviews with David Sánchez. Furthermore, he explained that, according to his perception, he did not observe any irregularities in the procedure.

In any case, he pointed out that filing a legal appeal would have entailed an economic and personal expense. For this reason, he never challenged the resolution nor filed any complaint. It is important to mention that, currently, Avakimyan remains linked to the Conservatory.
