The Supreme Court's Decision That Would Put Four High-ranking Socialist Officials in the Crosshairs

The Controversial Case of the Leak of Personal Data of Alberto González Amador, Partner of the President of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, Closes the Circle on PSOE. The Case of the Businessman That Has Brought the Attorney General to the Bench as a Defendant Also Implicates Several High-Ranking Officials of the Socialist Party. Among Them, the Secretary of Organization and Number Two of the Party, Santos Cerdán, a Very Talked-About Name These Days in Several Scandals.

González Amador Has Requested the Judge Leading the Investigation to Contact Four Telephone Companies to Request "All the Data" They May Have Stored About Santos Cerdán. González Amador's Defense Considers This Information Crucial for the Investigation, Therefore, They Request That His Communications Not Be Deleted Due to the Relevance of This Data. In Addition to This, They Emphasize That Cerdán Is Not the Only One, Pointing to Seven More Socialists.

Among the Most Notable Are the Secretary of Organization of PSOE-M, Pilar Sánchez Acera; and the Director of Communication of PSOE, Ion Fernando Antolín. Also, the Former Secretary of State for Communication, Francesc Vallés Vives; and the Chief of Staff of the Minister of Housing, Laura Sánchez Espadas.

According to El Confidencial, the Same Request Made for These PSOE Officials Also Includes the Data Accumulated on Other Telephone Lines of the Attorney General, Álvaro García Ortiz. Likewise, Also of the Deputy Prosecutor of the Technical Secretariat of the Public Ministry, Diego Villafañe, and the Head of Communication, Mar Hedo.

Amador's Lawyer Requests the Preservation of the Data After It Was Revealed, Following a UCO Investigation, That García Ortiz Deleted His WhatsApp Messages Twice. This, on the Same Day the Investigation Was Opened Against Him for Alleged Crime of Breach of Secrets.

The Key Step by UCO That Shakes García Ortiz

The Attorney General, Álvaro García Ortiz, Is Going Through a Rather Rough Judicial Path. Civil Guard Investigators Have Determined That the Indicted Prosecutor Deleted Key Information from His Mobile Phone and Also That García Ortiz Allegedly Got Rid of Some Devices.

Judge Ángel Hurtado Orders New Proceedings to Locate the Discarded Phones of the Attorney General. The Supreme Court Judge Continues the Search for the Missing Communications of the Attorney General. This, in the Framework of the Investigation for Breach of Secrets Affecting Isabel Díaz Ayuso's Partner.

This Monday, He Issued a New Order Indicating a New Key Step. In Addition to the WhatsApp Messages and Emails Required by the Civil Guard's UCO Not Being Found, the Mobile Devices That Álvaro García Ortiz Discarded Have Also Not Appeared. This, After Making Terminal Changes.

In Light of This Situation, and at the Request of the Partner of the Madrid President, the Judge Has Ordered New Proceedings to Try to Recover Those Devices.

Specifically, He Has Requested the Area in Charge of Mobile Devices of the Ministries of Presidency, Justice, and Treasury to Deliver García Ortiz's Phones. In Particular, Those He Has Returned Since March 7, 2024. The Date on Which the Attorney General's Office Received the First Report on the Investigation for Alleged Tax Crimes of Ayuso's Partner.

The Judge Asks That Both Justice and Treasury Provide the Agents with the Devices Delivered Due to Disuse or Previous Renewals, Thus Covering Almost a Year of Terminal Changes. This Is Not the First Time an Attempt Has Been Made to Clarify This Matter. In January, Hurtado Had Already Requested Information from the IT Section of the Attorney General's Office, but the Response Obtained Did Not Resolve His Doubts.
