It should be noted that the last two are former State Attorney Generals. According to the media, they lament seeing "how the image of the Public Prosecutor's Office that the State Attorney General represents and the Institution that must be safeguarded are being subjected to unbearable tension."

The scandal surrounding the Attorney General for the alleged leak of personal data of Alberto González Amador has escalated. Therefore, he now faces a tough legal path. However, it seems García Ortiz wants to step down, but the Government won't allow it.

When the controversial news broke, García Ortiz's resignation became a topic of debate in talk shows and on social media. But from the space of Spanish public television, funded by everyone, the prosecutor stated in an interview that he didn't plan to resign. And although he claimed to have the 'absolute conviction not to resign,' it was revealed this Wednesday that Pedro Sánchez's prosecutor has been communicating his intention to leave the position for months.

According to information published by The Objective, Sánchez's Government is allegedly responsible for "blocking" García Ortiz's resignation. Allegedly, with the clear intention of having him as a "firewall" to prevent the scandalous case from affecting La Moncloa.
