Judge Santiago Pedraz, who instructs at the National Court the cause for the police maneuvers against Podemos during the last Government of the PP, has summoned to declare as investigated a member of the National Police for having consulted data from the then leader of the formation, Pablo Iglesias, using as an argument that one of his collaborators, Miguel Urbán, was being investigated by drug trafficking. The investigation to Urbán for supposedly selling 40 kilos of cocaine was a assembly to support a cause for irregular financing to Podemos in full negotiations with the PSOE to form government in 2016.
We can, who exercises the popular accusation at the National Court for the dirty war against the party, asked to incorporate the secret investigation proceedings open by the Anti -Drug Prosecutor’s Office – with falsehoods provided by the Police – after Eldiario.es reveals the assembly. The prosecutor in the case of the dirty war against Podemos opposed the incorporation of that information and Pedraz has resolved that it is not necessary to take them to the cause of the maneuvers they sought to harm the party.
But the fact that the search for Pablo Iglesias is not justified from an investigation against Urbán has motivated the judge to declare as investigated the police who conducted searches for churches, arguing “an alleged transaction of the narcotic substance of another person of another person of the same party”, as recorded in the order to which Eldiario has had access. The statement as a police officer will take place on July 3. The police will have to answer the question of who gave the order to consult Iglesias in a restricted database.
Within the framework of the cause that Pedraz instructs, the police itself reported a few months ago to the National Court of the existence of inquiries about Urbán. A search for Pablo Iglesias had appeared and the Police replied that police databases had been made “about the people around Urbán.” They baptized him as the cardinal operation. That was the first clue to find Miguel Urbán and Cocaine.
The director of the Intelligence Center against Terrorism and Organized Crime (CITCO) in 2016, Commissioner José Luis Olivera, used the alleged story of a confidant to inform Anti -Drug that Urbán would have sold 40 kilos of cocaine from Venezuela in a pub in Malasaña to finance Podemos. The story was crazy, but in the investigation the central police units against organized crime and anti -corruption, the National Office for Fraud Research (ONIF) and the Anti -Drug Prosecutor’s Office ended up involved. The latter filed the case six months later by not finding any indication of crime in the information provided by the police.
