This is the twist García Ortiz wants to give to his investigation that leaves him portrayed

The State Attorney General, Álvaro García Ortiz, remains in the spotlight. Especially after his appearance in the Supreme Court as a defendant for alleged crime of breach of confidentiality. Some situations that have occurred around García Ortiz have raised suspicions among citizens who have expressed it on social media, now, the prosecutor surprises again.

García Ortiz denied having shared details about the complaint filed by prosecutor Julián Salto. Better known as the 'Ayuso's boyfriend case'. This, due to the emails in which the businessman's defense acknowledged the commission of two tax crimes.

Furthermore, the reply of the attorney general when asked about the information that had been deleted from his mobile phone, gave an answer that caused several criticisms on social media.

Regarding his change of mobile phone, which occurred a week after the Supreme Court opened an investigation against him, García Ortiz surprised with his reply. The attorney general argued that his device contained sensitive information for national security.

He emphasized that:

I believe there are very few authorities in Spain who handle a volume of information like the attorney general.

He also defended his habit of regularly deleting data, justifying it as a legal obligation. "I delete everything, absolutely everything, because that's what the regulations require. It's not a personal decision, it's established by the European Union's data protection regulation and Spanish legislation."

Finally, he described the suspicion about his phone change as an "illogical inference". In addition to this, he clarified that he requested the new device in May 2024, but didn't activate it until October 23. Exactly eight days after the Supreme Court's Criminal Chamber opened the case against him.

"Absolutely not," García Ortiz replied when his lawyer asked if he had transmitted these data "directly or indirectly" to the press or to people linked to the Government of Spain.

Pedro Sánchez's attorney general also claimed to have no knowledge of the facts. He asserts he is unaware that the Prosecutor's Office had leaked the email from February 2, 2024. The same one in which González Amador's lawyer, Carlos Neira, proposed an agreement to admit the crimes in exchange for a reduced sentence.

He also denied having obstructed said agreement, emphasizing that the businessman "is a citizen with the fullness of his legal and constitutional rights."
