The news about the disappearance of evidence and relevant court orders in the Unión case forces us to suspect the possible manipulation of the judicial file carried out by "someone from the inside".
A suspicion with a basis, because if there is something shocking in the portrait drawn by the Unión case, it is the ease and frequency with which political wills and technical reports were bought.
Apparently, this purchasing capacity could have been extended to the interior of the justice system, with the purpose of dropping the procedure by subtracting or altering relevant documentation from the judicial file.
These facts highlight two fundamental issues. The first, and most obvious, is the suspicion, almost certainty, that there is an enormous capacity to corrupt by some or some of the accused, to the point of twisting the loyalty of some judicial operator.
The second question to consider is to what extent the instruction has been correct and the evidence sufficient that legal defense is not enough. Apparently, for some or some of the accused, it is not enough to question the quality of the instruction or the value of the evidence obtained, it is about making that evidence or essential documents disappear to try to invalidate the instruction.
Precisely the fact that they have had to resort to these maneuvers gives an additional margin of credibility to the story that was being built from the instruction: a network of relationships between businessmen, politicians and technicians who had stormed the main institutions of Lanzarote.
Apparently, they have also been able to assault the courts.
