In the latest session of Spain's Supreme Court trial over the Koldo mask scandal—following testimonies from Víctor de Aldama and Koldo García—former Transport Minister José Luis Ábalos denied all corruption charges on May 4, 2026. Anticorruption prosecutors refused to further cut collaborator Aldama's penalty, while the PP reduced its request to avoid prison for him.
Former PSOE Organization Secretary Santos Cerdán publishes a book in which he describes himself as architect of political agreements and victim of persecution after his indictment in the Koldo Case.
