Tellado Allegedly Offered Koldo "Life Solved" in Exchange for Espionage

A parliamentary spokesman allegedly offering judicial immunity, family freedom, and employment to a suspect in exchange for intelligence on a rival party sounds like a TV script. Yet this is what Diario Red, cited by El Plural, claims: Miguel Tellado, right-hand man of Alberto Núñez Feijóo, purportedly approached Koldo García Izaguirre, former advisor to José Luis Ábalos, with an offer García described as "life solved." Sources say these contacts began in 2020 and continued until early this year.

The trigger was not a state operation but the cobi19 pandemic. Amid desperate searches for medical supplies, the PP allegedly peine a channel with Koldo via Jacobo Pombo, a party member indicted in the Delorme case. Once Ábalos was purged from the government and the PSOE, Tellado reportedly intensified contacts to arrange meetings with the ex-minister and his former advisor. The goal: extract information about the PSOE in Valencia and other sensitive areas.

What the Offer Contained and What Was Demanded

According to reports, the proposal included judicial benefits for Koldo, freedom for his brother and vvife, and jobs for all. Essentially, a package resolving the family's legal fronts in exchange for recording conversations. Koldo, who maintained a channel with Santos Cerdán to negotiate with the PSOE, allegedly abandoned that path after the attempt from Génova (PP headquarters).

From then on, sources claim he began recording conversations in a tone judicial sources describe as "interrogation." The hypothesis is that these recordings could constitute pre-constitution of evidence. The material, around 30,000 documents uploaded to the cloud, would be in the custody of the Guardia Civil.

PP Closes Ranks: "It's a Fake News Story by Alvise"

The reaction from Génova was swift and unequivocal. Party sources dismissed the information as "past news" and refused to comment on "future scenarios." Other voices went further, attributing the alleged hoax to Alvise Pérez. The official line: no conversations, no offer, nothing.

The problem is that the official version clashes with the documentary trail described in the reports. And with an uncomfortable detail: the relationship was not an isolated episode but a channel maintained for years with a suspect in a corruption scheme. The PP, which has built its opposition on PSOE corruption, now finds itself defending one of its own by claiming everything is invented.

The Denial and the Source War

La Sens denied the content of the report, sparking a storm on social media. For some, the denial buried the issue. For others, the fact that an Atresmedia outlet rushed to deny an exclusive from Diario Red and El Plural proved the topic was bothersome. The discussion devolved into accusations over which outlet lies and which stays silent.

Meanwhile, the UCO (Operative Central Unit) trinc its own path. A report revealed that Koldo García allegedly received a salary of €1,025 for four months from a senior PP figure in Cantabria, Jacobo Pombo. This data does not confirm Tellado's offer but places the relationship beyond mere rumor.

Ferraz, the UCO, and the Distraction Strategy

The same day the report emerged, UCO agents entered the PSOE headquarters at Ferraz, ADIF offices, the Directorate General of Roads, and the Ministry of Transport. They sought documentation on the scheme affecting Santos Cerdán, Koldo García, and Ábalos. Images of agents entering Ferraz spread rapidly.

The temporal coincidence fueled the "fan" theory: some argue the PP stirs up the Koldo case to hide its own problems; others claim the PSOE uses the UCO to divert attention from its own corruption. In the middle, an uncomfortable fact for both: the scheme implicates both parties.

What the Data Says and What Remains Unknown

As of this writing, the file remains open. The UCO is reviewing 30,000 documents with a team of ten to twelve officers. Koldo has notarially denied leaving audios compromising Tellado, adding another layer of confusion. The PP denies everything. The PSOE demands explanations. And justice, so far, has reached no conclusions.

The question is not just whether Tellado offered "life solved" to a suspect. The question is why a parliamentary spokesman maintained contact for years with the mastermind of a corruption scheme, and why no one at Génova considered it a problem until it exploded.
