Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez was called to testify as a witness in a case involving his wife Begoña Gomez - the circumstances of the case are related to support for corruption and influence peddling. Writes UNN with reference to Euronews.

Details

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has been called to testify as a witness in an investigation into alleged corruption and influence peddling charges against his wife. In April 2024, the circumstances of the case led Spain's top official to consider resigning. A court spokesman said Sanchez's testimony would be “convenient, useful and relevant” to the investigation to determine whether influence peddling took place.

Reference

This is the first time that a sitting Spanish Prime Minister has been called to testify in a trial since Mariano Rajoy (Spanish politician, leader of the Popular Party since 2004 - ed.) was called to testify in 2017 as part of a corruption case that led to the conviction of several members of the Popular Party (PP).

Recall

UNN reported that Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez was suspending his public duties amid corruption allegations against his wife.
