Cristian Corvillo, who was the driver of the Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, acknowledges before the judge of the 'hydrocarbon case' having met with the former director of the Ministry of Transport, José Luis Ábalos, to discuss matters related to the PSOE. These meetings are part of the investigations into alleged corruption networks in circles close to the Spanish executive power.
Furthermore, Corvillo and his brother Rubén admitted having maintained business relations with Víctor de Aldama, known as the 'fixer' in the judicial process. The brothers acknowledge contact with Aldama, although they stated the deals never came to fruition.
The case involves high-level figures of the Spanish government, including Prime Minister Sánchez himself and former director Ábalos, who was forced to leave the PSOE after the scandal. The investigations focus on alleged networks of influence trafficking and corruption that allegedly operated during the management of energy and transport affairs.
