Leire Díez will reveal to the judge the chain of command from Moncloa
One name has until now remained in the background in the investigation into the alleged organisation set up to destabilise institutions. Leire Díez, the former Socialist activist forced to leave the party a year ago, has decided to cooperate with the justice system. According to THE OBJECTIVE, her statement before Judge Santiago Pedraz points directly to the top leadership of Spain's PSOE.
The woman once regarded as the party's fixer plans to reveal from whom she «received instructions» on behalf of Moncloa, the Spanish government's headquarters. According to sources consulted, this points to the Organisation Secretary, Santos Cerdán, who in turn reported to Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. Díez's aim is to climb up the chain of responsibility, which could put the government's top leadership in the spotlight.
The former activist has turned the page on the party that expelled her and is willing to provide key information about the alleged scheme. Her decision to step forward is no small matter: if her revelations hold up, the case could reach unsuspected levels. For now, anticipation is at its height.
How far up the chain of command will Leire Díez's revelations go?
