A judicial order by Judge Santiago Pedraz reveals that an alleged network linked to the PSOE managed at least 538,225 euros for bribes and spreading rumors against the UCO.
The order by the National Court judge details payments made by the PSOE through linked companies. Leire Díez received 39,225 euros starting in June 2024, including transfers from Zaño Sociedad Consultora.
Santos Cerdán and manager Ana María Fuentes are implicated in fund management. 20,000 euros were paid to journalist Patricia López for media campaigns, and bribes of up to 300,000 euros were offered to prosecutors such as José Grinda.
The party structure allegedly covered the costs, according to the investigating judge. Gaspar Zarrías is also charged in connection with the payments.
The Civil Guard searched the Ferraz headquarters in Madrid as part of the probe.
