In a session of the Koldo masks case trial at Spain's Supreme Court, former PSOE manager Mariano Moreno Pavón denied distributing high-denomination 500-euro bills ('txistorras') or unmonitored cash to José Luis Ábalos and Koldo García from the party's Ferraz cash box. García's lawyer showed undated expense sheets, but the court curbed hypotheticals. Other witnesses, including Celia Rodríguez, Pedro Saura, and Carlos Moreno, clarified reimbursements and denied irregularities.
Francisca Paqui Muñoz, wife of former PSOE Organization Secretary Santos Cerdán, appeared before a Senate commission investigating the Koldo case but invoked her right not to testify due to her husband's investigation and requested to leave for health reasons, which was denied. For nearly two hours, she remained absorbed in her mobile phone as opposition senators questioned her links to Servinabar company and expenses it covered. The commission president reproached her discourtesy at the end.
