The Cabildo of Lanzarote wanted to express "its satisfaction for the
request of the prosecutor of Environment and Urbanism of Las Palmas,
Javier Ródenas, after he has asked the investigating judge of the
Unión case to archive one of the separate pieces of the same, in which the general secretary of the Cabildo of
Lanzarote, Francisco Perdomo, was affected".
In this case, Perdomo had been charged with an alleged crime of influence peddling, but the Cabildo emphasizes that "for the prosecutor, it has been shown that there is no reason to maintain
the accusation". Although the secrecy of the summary on this piece was lifted more than a year ago, Ródenas has now raised this request, when the case is in a kind of judicial limbo. And it should be remembered that magistrate César Romero Pamparacuatro is removed from the case and awaiting a decision from the General Council of the Judiciary, which must rule on the extension of the commission of services that allowed him to continue the investigation.
"For the Institution itself, it is a reason for joy that the
highest responsible for the legal services of the Cabildo and public
notary is innocent of all suspicion in the eyes of the Prosecutor's Office and
we hope that the judge will immediately agree to the dismissal", they say from the government group of the Cabildo in a statement.
In addition, the president of the Corporation, Pedro San Ginés, has expressed his "disagreement with the slowness with which this process has been carried out, which has led to a parallel public trial in which, unfairly, the image of the highest-ranking official of the Corporation has been seriously and irreparably damaged".
In this sense, San Ginés maintains that "publicly, the "honesty and integrity" of Francisco Perdomo has been questioned, "earned over decades of exemplary performance of his work at the head of the first island Institution, as could be accredited by the heads of the different presidencies that have governed it during the performance of his position, as well as the different political groups".
