Several names from Ayuso’s boyfriend’s circle appear on their list and PP politicians and related businessmen predominate.
The PSOE has decided to include more than a dozen senior PP officials in its list of appearances for the Congressional investigation commission on emergency contracts in the pandemic, including the spokesperson for the Popular Group, Miguel Tellado, and the spokesperson in the party itself. commission, Elías Bendodo, as well as the mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez Almeida, and three regional presidents: Isabel Díaz Ayuso (Madrid), Juanma Moreno Bonilla (Andalusia) and Marga Prohens (Balearic Islands).
Although the investigation commission was created with the first purpose of clarifying the contracts signed by the central government, the list of appearances of the PSOE has more impact on the second point, that of examining the emergency contracting procedures in the other administrations.
The socialist spokesperson, Patxi López, had said that, before seeking political responsibilities, the priority should be to call technicians to study the hiring procedures, but on the PSOE list, with 84 names, there are many senior PP officials and related people with ‘popular’ politicians.
Thus, Miguel Tellado appears from the current leadership of Genoa, who was cited by one of the members of the ‘Koldo case’ plot in the wiretaps carried out in the investigation; and Elías Bendodo, who is the spokesperson for the commission and who in those months of the pandemic was a counselor in the Junta de Andalucía.
Along with Juanma Moreno Bonilla, other members of the PP of the Junta de Andalucía appear, such as Jesús Aguirre and Antonio Sanz; and the contractor Félix Guerrero Arias, who in those months was recorded apparently speaking with the then counselor Bendodo.
The PSOE not only cites Isabel Díaz Ayuso, but also its cabinet director, Miguel Ángel Rodríguez; her number two in the PP, Alfonso Serrano; her advisors Fátima Matute Teresa and Ana Dávila-Ponce de León; his former Health Minister Enrique Ruiz Escudero; and the former general director of the Integrated Health Process, Manuel Ángel De la Puente Andrés.
Although the socialists have not wanted to include Alberto González Amador, Ayuso’s boyfriend, on their list, they do want to call several people who have appeared in the press linked to him, such as Javier Luis Gómez Fidalgo, administrator of the Babia Capital company who, according to various media, bought a penthouse above where the couple lives; Gloria Carrasco Fernández, a pharmacist who sold a company to the president’s partner; and three alleged ‘front men’ of the businessmen: David Herrera Lobato, Agustín Carrillo Saborido and José Miguel Carrillo Saborido.
Nor does it mention Tomás Díaz Ayuso, the president’s brother, but it does mention close figures, such as Daniel Alcázar, administrator of a company that sold masks to the Community,
THE MAYOR, HIS TEAM AND THE COMMISSIONERS
And with Mayor Martínez Almeida are also his Vice Mayor, Inmaculada Sanz; councilor Francisco de Borja Fanjul Fernández-Pita; to its former general coordinator, Matilde García Duarte; the manager of the Municipal Company of Funeral Services and Cemeteries of Madrid, Fernando Sánchez González, and Francisco Javier Ramírez Caro and Marta García Miranda, senior officials in the city council.
In addition, they ask to call the commissioners Luis Medina Abascal and Javier Luceño, who contracted with the city council, and María Díaz de la Cebosa, the teacher who facilitated the contact of Almeida’s cousin.
Other names from the PP are Jesús Vázquez Almuíña, Feijóo Health Minister between 2015 and 2020; Javier Aureliano García Molina, president of the PP of Almería, and Rodrigo Sánchez Simón, ‘popular’ mayor of Fines (Almería); and Mario Amilivia González, former mayor of León and now president of the Accounts Council of Castilla y León;
ALSO SOME FROM THE PSOE, BUT DON’T BEAT THEM
Some socialist representatives also appear on the PSOE list, such as former minister Salvador Illa, responsible for Health in the pandemic and now the PSC candidate for the Generalitat, and the two former regional presidents who contracted with the Koldo plot: the Balearic Francina Armengol, now president of Congress, and the Canarian Ángel Víctor Torres, current Minister of Territorial Policy. From that Balearic government it also includes the councilor and spokesperson, Iago Negueruela; to Manuel Palomino Chacón, general director of IB Salut, and his predecessor, Juli Fuster.
The relationship includes Koldo García Izaguirre, the epicenter of the ‘Koldo case’, but not the minister to whom he was an advisor, José Luis Ábalos. If Jacobo Pombo García appears, a businessman linked to the PP whom the investigation places as an intermediary to try to stop the claim of the Balearic Islands.
Finally, there is also room for heads of supervisory bodies such as Enriqueta Chicano Jávega, president of the Court of Accounts; Miquel Salazar Canalda, senior trustee of Catalonia; María Inmaculada Saavedra Padrón, auditor advisor of the Area of ??Dependent Autonomous Entities and Universities of the Canary Islands; and Natalia Elisa De Luis Yanes, general auditor in the Canary Islands.
