Supreme Court Investigation into Attorney General Álvaro García Ortiz Intensifies
The Supreme Court judge overseeing the investigation into Attorney General Álvaro García Ortiz has made a significant request for information from the Central Operations Unit (UCO) of the Civil Guard. This inquiry is focused on alleged breaches of confidentiality linked to García Ortiz.
Judge Ángel Hurtado has requested the phone numbers and IMSI/IMEI data associated with mobile devices that were seized during a search of García Ortiz's office on October 30. Additionally, the judge is seeking details regarding the ownership of those phone numbers, a move that underscores the seriousness of the allegations at hand.
This action follows a report from the Civil Guard, which indicated that they found no messages on García Ortiz’s devices between March 8 and March 14, which are critical dates related to the alleged information leak. The leak was reportedly raised by Alberto González Amador, who is linked to Madrid’s president Isabel Díaz Ayuso.
The investigation is pivotal as it delves into the interactions and information flow between high-ranking officials, raising questions about governmental transparency and the potential misuse of confidential state information. As developments unfold, the implications of this case will likely resonate throughout the political landscape of Spain.
