The former president of Barça, Sandro Rosell, has been “very indignant” with the information that implicates the FBI in the Catalunya operation. “We knew that the FBI had been intoxicated and that they had intervened in our case, but we did not have the evidence,” Rosell said this morning during an interview on El Món a Rac 1.
The same program has uncovered that the FBI participated in the Catalunya operation, deceived by the patriotic police. According to El Món a Rac 1, former commissioner Villarejo used his contacts in the FBI to place one of his confidants as a source and implicate, among others, Sandro Rosell in a case of sports corruption.
“When Villarejo had not yet appeared, we already asked Marc Varry to come and testify,” Rosell commented. Varry is the FBI agent sent to Spain, who ultimately did not appear at the trial.
The former president of Barça has assured that this information will help them “to move forward with more power” although he has regretted that the Spanish justice system “will not pay any attention to them.”
Rosell has expressed surprise that the patriotic police involved the FBI. “All this is very beastly. How can it be that Mortadelo and Filemón deceive the FBI?” the former culé president asked himself.
“The Spanish mafia is within the state,” Rosell said. Furthermore, he commented that “they took the three people who at that time had the most loudspeakers in Catalonia: Artur Mas, Xavier Trias and me.”
The Prosecutor’s Office of the Superior Court of Justice of Catalonia opened its first investigation into the Catalunya operation last January. In a decree, signed by the chief prosecutor of Catalonia, Francisco Bañeras, the public ministry opened proceedings to clarify the attempt to investigate in 2012 by the Ministry of the Interior, led by Jorge Fernández Díaz, the then chief prosecutor of Catalonia, Martín Rodríguez Sol, with the apparent objective of seeking incriminating evidence against him.
These were the first investigations opened by the Prosecutor’s Office on Operation Catalunya, the operation devised by the Ministry of the Interior during the time of Mariano Rajoy to act against personalities close to independence nationalism and other personalities to try to deactivate what would later be called the process. with methods apparently outside the law.
