Overview

  • During her June 4 press conference, ex-PSOE militant Leire Díez was confronted by Víctor de Aldama, who accused her of fabricating claims and issued warnings.
  • PSOE has submitted the pendrive with materials provided by Díez to the Fiscalía General del Estado for investigation of potential illegalities.
  • On June 4, Alfonso Villares resigned as Galician Conselleiro do Mar after the TSXG notified him he was under investigation for a sexual assault allegation filed by presenter Paloma Lago.
  • Galician President Alfonso Rueda said he learned of the complaint in February and waited for judicial developments before accepting Villares’s resignation while calling for a swift judicial resolution.
  • Opposition leaders including PP spokesman Borja Sémper and Galicia’s BNG have demanded transparent accountability and clear government responses to the unfolding scandals.
