Unexpected Twist in the Koldo Case: Aldama Prepares New Evidence Against the Government

Víctor De Aldama prepares a new set of evidence that puts several high-ranking government officials against the ropes

Businessman Víctor de Aldama is preparing to deliver another blow to the Government. This week, the most controversial man of the moment submitted a detailed report to the Supreme Court about the apartments he has rented for the alleged enjoyment of some high-ranking politicians. Meanwhile, after recovering information from his mobile phone, the businessman is preparing to reveal conversations that had been inaccessible until now.

Aldama continues to examine the information contained in his mobile phone. The one that was recently returned to him after being seized in October as part of the investigation into the hydrocarbons case.

After Judge Santiago Pedraz authorized his defense to have the support of a computer expert to recover files from the device, De Aldama is preparing the offensive. The businessman is working on gathering new evidence. His goal is to reinforce the accusations he holds against Pedro Sánchez's Government.

Businessman Víctor de Aldama is working on gathering new evidence that would affect key figures of the Socialist Party, including its Secretary of Organization, Santos Cerdán. Also, the Minister of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, Ángel Víctor Torres; María Jesús Montero's Chief of Staff, Carlos Moreno; as well as several heads of public companies.

According to Aldama's claims, various WhatsApp conversations with Government members still need to be extracted from the mobile device. These messages, he claims, would demonstrate his connection with the Executive and the alleged payment of commissions.

It should be remembered that Judge Pedraz has already requested a report from the Civil Guard on Aldama's communications with the former Minister of Transport, José Luis Ábalos, and his son. Also, those he had with the former President of the Canary Islands Ángel Víctor Torres and the PSOE's Secretary of Organization, Santos Cerdán. Regarding the latter, the businessman claims to have handed him 15,000 euros in cash inside an envelope at a bar near the Socialist headquarters in Ferraz.

The Deal That Freed Víctor de Aldama and Unleashed García Ortiz's Anger

Businessman Víctor de Aldama, identified as a key figure in the Koldo plot and the hydrocarbons fraud, was released from prison on November 21. His release was the result of an agreement with the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, which allowed him to avoid jail in exchange for information on alleged bribes.

According to journalistic revelations, Aldama provided details about illicit payments to Government and PSOE figures. The State Attorney General, Álvaro García Ortiz, was not informed of this agreement, according to sources close to the investigation.

These same sources claim that his knowledge was deliberately omitted due to his alleged affinity with Pedro Sánchez's Executive. It is argued that, had he been notified, García Ortiz could have blocked the reached agreement.

The Attorney General only learned of the agreement after Aldama's statement at the National Court. Hours after his testimony, the businessman was released, which caused surprise and anger in García Ortiz.

According to journalistic information, he demanded explanations from the Chief Anti-Corruption Prosecutor, Alejandro Luzón, questioning why he had not been informed beforehand.
