Imputed room of the Andalusian Board in the causes of SAS contracts | Spain
The judge investigating a possible embezzlement in the undue and massive subdivision of Contracts for 235 million to the private health of the Andalusian Health Service (SAS) In Cádiz, Rosa María García, has cited as investigated the economic director of SAS purchases in that province, Demetrio González. It is the fourth member of the Autonomic Executive charged in the causes that concern the Board for Pandemic SAS contracts and later years, since in the investigation into an alleged prevarication in the adjudication of emergency contracts for 234 million from the central in Seville, the manager of the SAS, Valle García, and its two predecessors in the position, Miguel Ángel Guzmán and Diego Vargas are investigated.
González was cited in principle as a witness at the end of April in the Cadiz court, but after the declaration of the Board’s auditors last week, the judge has changed his mind and has summoned him as investigated in the case, which investigates whether there was embezzlement in the artificial contracting of contracts. The auditors who loaded against the fractionation of contracts ratified in front of the magistrate the bulk of their reports and censored that the SAS issued in Cádiz 135,767 invoices that added 235 million in minor contracts distributed in 175 files during 2021. The auditors of the Board considered that these contracts were “in fraud of law”, questioning that it resulted in the complaint of the party Courts and in the subsequent opening of the case by magistrate Garcia, seeing indications of crime.
In these investigations, the Board has finally been personally personally personally, after it presented contradictory writings about its role as an injured part and in parallel as a subsidiary civilian. The Andalusian government has said one thing and the opposite and at the beginning of the investigation asked to appeal twice in the court, but the magistrate denied it because the Board did not clarify in quality of what it wanted to appeal in the case.
The Executive later clarified that he requested to appear as injured, But shortly after, he asked to have a subsidiary civilian, « a legal nonsense, » in the words of Podemos. The Board spokeswoman, Carolina España, threw balls out when asked about this position change, and claimed that if the legal services had deemed convenient change, « it will be because it is the most appropriate. »
The complainant of the case in Cádiz, Podemos, has criticized on Monday that « the 235 million investigated could be only the tip of the iceberg of what the PP of Moreno Bonilla is doing with the Andalusian health. » « After verifying that the auditors were right to criticize the irregularities worth 235 million in the management of minor contracts in Cádiz, it is urgent and necessary to clarify who are the political positions that gave green light to all this, » the co -man of Podemos Andalucía, José Manuel Jurado, has censored.
The person responsible for the Andalusian health accounts and planning his hiring, José Antonio Miranda, ceased his position a month ago. Miranda, veteran deputy of the PP and General Director of Economic Management of the SAS, was in charge of the Andalusian Health Service and its Budget Planning from 2019 to last March. The Minister of Health, Rocío Hernández, said he had asked « a break » because he had the « very close » retirement.
We can not believe the official version of its recent substitution. « No one believes today that this man needed to rest. How to rest? Mr. Moreno Bonilla, give a coherent explanation and be sincere for once why he has been ceased, » added Jury. González’s imputation arrives this Monday after The demonstration last Saturday in Seville that concentrated thousands of Andalusians in a historic march to cry out for the abandonment of public health by the Board.
