The judge investigating the criminal case against Alberto González Amador, partner of Isabel Díaz Ayuso, has once again summoned him to testify as an investigator on November 29, according to the resolution to which elDiario.es has had access. Legal sources assure that the summons is produced to close the agreement that the businessman has been negotiating with the Prosecutor’s Office for months. This conciliation agreement involves acknowledging that he committed two tax crimes and another of document falsification in exchange for accepting a sentence of eight months in prison – as long as it does not imply his entry into prison – and paying more than half a million euros.
The summons comes less than a week after the judge agreed to open a separate piece to investigate possible crimes in the relationship between the businessman and the Quirón Group, the private healthcare giant that enjoys awards of hundreds of millions from the Community of Madrid. However, this new derivative does not intersect, on paper, with the main branch of the case and technically there are no impediments to reaching an agreement, maintain the sources consulted.
The Prosecutor’s Office denounced González Amador in the Madrid courts for defrauding more than 350,000 euros between 2020 and 2021 through a network of false invoices and front companies. The businessman invoiced 3.7 million euros, of which almost two came from a single operation to mediate a contract for the sale of masks. When the time came to justify those large profits to the Treasury, he tried to deceive the treasury. He did so by allocating expenses of hundreds of thousands of euros for jobs that never existed, but that benefited him fiscally.
During the first months of the investigation, his defense tried to combat the Treasury’s accusations and defended that the works were real. But the strategy gradually shifted towards recognition of the facts and damage control. First, he withdrew some invoices with which he had tried to pay less taxes; and, a month before being denounced, he offered a pact to the Prosecutor’s Office. In that agreement, which motivated the new summons from the judge known this Tuesday, he was willing to accept eight months in prison and pay more than half a million euros between debts, fines and interest in exchange for not going to jail and closing the case. with a ruling of conformity.
The Treasury investigation undertaken by the Prosecutor’s Office was so exhaustive that the proceedings opened by Judge Inmaculada Iglesias barely went beyond requesting all the documentation from the treasury and calling González Amador himself and his alleged associates to testify. However, so far there have only been two failed attempts to have the businessman appear in court.
His first statement was scheduled for May 20, but that day the businessman, after avoiding the press by wearing a wig, did not appear because it had not been possible to locate some of the accused. His second summons, already at the end of June, was also postponed after PSOE and Más Madrid asked to analyze his relationship with the Quirón Group. That day, the commission agent did not even enter the courts located in the Plaza de Castilla in Madrid.
In this new resolution, the judge summons for the same day Maximiliano Niederer, the Mexican citizen residing in Madrid who would have helped González Amador prepare the two largest false invoices for uncontracted work. One of them for a value of 620,000 euros in the name of a Mexican firm called MKE Manufacturing SA, dated at the end of 2020, and another for 922,585.63 euros issued in 2021 by the company Gayani Ltd, based in the Ivory Coast.
Three residents of the Sevillian town of Arahal are also called to appear on November 29. They appear at the head of half a dozen companies that, according to the Treasury, also contributed to simulating expenses for the Ayuso couple’s corporate network for tens of thousands of euros.
