Pedro San Ginés, entering the Courts to testify in this new case

Judge Jerónimo Alonso has already summoned the former president of the Cabildo, Pedro San Ginés, to testify in the new case being brought against him, which led the UCO to search his home on March 28.

The statement has been scheduled for this Tuesday, August 30, after progress has already been made in the analysis of part of the seized documentation.

Along with San Ginés, the other suspect with whom this procedure began, the lawyer Ignacio Calatayud, has been summoned. Both are charged with alleged crimes of embezzlement and bribery, among others.

The investigation began with the money Calatayud received as a lawyer for Inalsa and the Consortium in the bankruptcy proceedings of the public water company, which amounted to almost one million euros in that procedure alone; and 1.5 million including other lawsuits.

Afterwards, other fronts were opened, which have included tracing the assets of both. Among other operations, the investigation is looking into how San Ginés bought his house, which belonged to Calatayud's father-in-law, also a lawyer, Felipe Fernández Camero.

Camero's daughter and Ignacio Calatayud's wife, Juana Fernández de las Heras, is also being investigated in the case and has been summoned to testify on August 30.

To them is added, for the moment, a fourth suspect: the former secretary of Inalsa, Pedro Antonio Márquez Rodríguez, who must appear before the judge on the same day.

Although none of the four has yet testified in court, all had already been summoned to the Civil Guard barracks to be questioned by the UCO.

In the case of Pedro San Ginés, he was the only one who refused to answer the agents, invoking his right as an accused not to testify, and stating that he would do so before the magistrate.
