The ‘Leire’ case squeezes the PSOE: who is who? | Spain

Last Wednesday, much of the country was magnetized on television contemplating a show full of noise. He appeared before the press Leire Díez, former PSOE, former director of Philately authorities. The appearance of Wednesday ended without anyone being able to ask Díez and, when he was already leaving, he broke out The well -known commissioner Víctor de Aldama, involved in the Koldo caseanother key character of the darkest news and who nobody expected in that hotel on that morning. A third protagonist, businessman Javier Pérez Dolset, got between the furious Aldama and the socialist release while all the cameras of the morning programs broadcast the live scene.

The call Leire Díez case He has placed the focus – in reality, hundreds of spotlights – in several people who, for years, have been handled in the shadows. Between recordings and intrigues. What do they want? What do they pursue? What moves them? What unites them? Those are the great issues that, according to who answers, leaves different answers. The PP, associations of civil guards and ultras groups (as you can hear) have already denounced the maneuvers of the PSOE ex -militant before the Anti -Corruption Prosecutor’s Office and before several courts, without it for it to have yet opened a cause to investigate it.

In addition to Leire Díez, in this story the names of entrepreneurs who want to break down the open judicial causes against them, lawyers, prosecutors, civil guards … an intricate skein that squeezes the PSOE are mixed. These are its main protagonists:

Leire Díez. There are two questions that threaten Ferraz and Moncloa: Who does Leire Díez work for? And on behalf of who spoke when it seemed to promise those favors of the Prosecutor’s Office? The PSOE, after dragging the feet several days, has disregarded the socialist excart, which became responsible for communication of the public company ENUSA (2018-2021) and director of Philately and Institutional Correos Relations (2022-2024). She assures that she is free, who is a journalist and that for years he investigates « about the ravages of false patriotism and the plots of hydrocarbons » to write a book, which assures that he has an editorial, without specifying which. « Leire Díez has been investigating with me, but not for me, for six years the sewers of the state, » added Pérez Dolset In an interview with El País.

But, according to several sources, Leire Díez has been collecting information for months and meeting with journalists offered by material. Audios and photographs reveal that it has also been seen with entrepreneurs, lawyers and investigated for corruption frames. Many appointments went to Pérez Dolset. And, as evidenced by the famous recording of his meeting with businessman Alejandro Hamlyn, he was looking for compromising data from authorities in exchange for those who came to insinuate alleged benefits of the Prosecutor’s Office. At his point of view, among others, Lieutenant Colonel Antonio Balas, high command of the Central Operational Unit (UCO) of the Civil Guard, which currently intervene in The investigations of Begoña Gómez casein which the wife of the president of the Government is charged; the cause in which it is investigated The supposed irregular hiring of Pedro Sánchez’s brother in the Diputación de Badajoz; he Koldo casethat corners José Luis Ábalos; and the instruction against the State Attorney General, Álvaro García Ortiz.

The direction of the PSOE has denied that the ex -militant be plumber of the party, or that he had authorization to speak in his name or in that of the government. When the scandal broke out, Ferraz refused to open a file at first, but then rectified. Díez went on Tuesday, before the press appearance, to the socialist headquarters to meet for almost two hours with the director of the legal services that instruct his file. There, in addition to trying to get ahead of events and request his voluntary decline, he delivered a pendrive with information that claims to have collected on the multimillion -dollar plot of hydrocarbons and on the Patriotic Policethe group of agents that operated at the time of the government of Mariano Rajoy against adversaries of the PP. After contributing that documentation, he asked as a last desire to meet with Santos Cerdán, secretary of Organization, who accepted. Then, the PSOE announced that it would carry that pendrive To the Prosecutor’s Office.

Victor of Aldama. In February 2024, when the National Court released him after being arrested for the first time by the Civil Guard, the commissioner tried to hide his face under the hood of a black sweatshirt. At that time it was a face Unknown, barely identifiable for the followers of Zamora CF, the soccer club he presided. For a few months he tried to go unnoticed, but everything changed on November 21, when confessed its involvement in the Koldo case After reaching an agreement with the Anti -Corruption Prosecutor’s Office, which allowed him to get his release after being arrested again by His supposed participation in another plot of hydrocarbons fraud (The sector that Leire Díez says he investigates). That day, by his lawyer José Antonio Choclán, Aldama pointed against former socialist minister José Luis Ábalos and accused other positions of the PSOE and government without evidence.

Since then, the businessman has lived against the Executive of Pedro Sánchez. And, in addition to maneuvering in the shadows, shoot at all those who consider their enemies. In fact, Leire Díez, Javier Pérez Dolset and the lawyer Jacobo Teijelo already pointed them last March in a television interview, before the broke Leire case: « There are three people who are the sewers of the PSOE, who are under the command of Santos Cerdán, who are called Javier Pérez Dolset, Jacobo Teixero (sic) and Leire Díez Castro. These gentlemen are getting in touch with entrepreneurs and people to offer them pardons and deals of favor, as long as they declare against me and lie about me. The thesis he published The confidential This May. « It seems very serious. We have evidence, » added the commissioner.

Javier Pérez Dolset. The businessman Pérez Dolset, founder of the Zed Worldwide Technology Group, went out to the rescue of Leire Díez when Aldama faced her after breaking into the press conference without questions that starred in the former socialist militant last Wednesday. With that action, he made it clear that he is not willing to be intimidated by those who have placed him in the target and point him as a PSOE plumber after appearing in the audio of the meeting with Hamlyn. He denies those accusations and He insists that he has been investigating the « sewers of the State » (In reference to the Ministry of Interior led by Jorge Fernández Díaz in the Era of Rajoy) since 2017, when he was arrested and imprisoned by the National Court accused of a fraud he denies.

The businessman is charged with Zed case. José Grinda, Anti -Corruption Prosecutor and on which compromising information is requested to Hamlyn, attributes a fraud for committing “illegal maneuvers” to “detract heritage of the company Zed Worldwide”, in addition to “falsify conditions of awarding and execution of subsidies of various public administrations”. However, Dolset defends his innocence and, for years, tries to demonstrate that he was held a “trap” and that his cause is a montage. Jacobo Teijelo is one of his lawyers, he details.

At this time, the founder of ZED has compiled numerous information and documents, which has provided to journalists and has even delivered at the National Court to investigate within the Villarejo case. In fact, he denounced that he had been Victim of a espionage of Commissioner José Manuel Villarejo paid by planetbehind which it places one of its senior managers, Mauricio Casals (but the court ruled out that there were sufficient indications to prosecute the editorial group). Planeta was a shareholder of Zed Worldwide and He maintained important encounters with Dolset for the control of the technological company.

Alejandro Hamlyn. The name of businessman Alejandro Hamlyn had practically gone unnoticed by the general public until May 26, When the audio of the meeting was published where he talks with Pérez Dolset and Leire Díez. The Prosecutor’s Office, who asks for more than 89 years in jail for him, places him at the top of a criminal organization dedicated to hydrocarbons fraud around his company Hafesa Energía. His trial had to begin at the National Court the same day that the first recordings were disseminated, but the court postponed the beginning of the hearing until June 30, since Hamlyn did not appear. His lawyer, José Antonio Choclán (the same one who defends Aldama), alleged in his favor that he is caught in Dubai for the non -payment of a debt. However, the Public Ministry believes that it is a ploy to try to avoid the action of justice and, in fact, already requested that an order to search and capture against him be dictated.

During the conversation with Leire Díez and Pérez Dolset, both invite him to abandon Choclán and to hire the services of Jacobo Teijelo. « Any information that Choclán will come to the other side in 30 seconds, » says Pérez Dolset at a time of the meeting to Hamlyn, which offers supposed sensitive information in exchange for the cause against him. According to the Prosecutor’s Office, the number two of Hamlyn in his plot of hydrocarbons was José Norberto Uzal, who was general director of Local Administration of the Department of Presidency of the Xunta de Galicia headed by Alberto Núñez Feijóo, current president of the PP.
