The European Prosecutor’s Office has opened a formal investigation into the contracts signed by the Canary Islands Health Service and the Balearic Islands Health Service for the supply of masks with the company Soluciones de Gestión, epicenter of the Koldo plot.
After receiving a complaint from the general secretary of the Madrid PP, the European Public Prosecutor’s Office carried out several measures with the aim of verifying its competence to investigate the alleged facts. Once the investigation opened to the National Court was made public, the European Prosecutor’s Office demanded from Judge Ismael Moreno to send him documentation of several contracts analyzed in the so-called Koldo plot, following suspicions that European funds could have been seen affected This Prosecutor’s Office, in addition, criticizes Anticorruption, which has led this entire operation, for the lack of collaboration in this matter. In parallel to receiving all the documentation, he has already announced the formal opening of an investigation.
It is not the first time that there is a confrontation between the two prosecutors’ offices. With the case of the brother of the Madrid president, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, there was also a clash to see who would take over the investigation, which was eventually shelved. In a letter submitted in the case involving the ex-advisor of José Luis Ábalos, the European prosecutor claims the Anticorruption complaint and all the contract documents that may affect European funds from the instructor.
Specifically, the General Secretariat of European Funds communicated on August 11, 2022 that the investigated company, Soluciones de Gestión, received contracts linked to the Feder operational programs of the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands from 2014 to 2020. After learning – about this matter, the European Prosecutor’s Office demanded information from the chief prosecutor of Anticorruption, Alejandro Luzón. According to the European Prosecutor’s Office, Luzón did not send any documentation beyond a decree.
