UCO reveals Koldo saved Sánchez's mobile as 'Number 1'
The Central Operative Unit (UCO) of Spain's Civil Guard has confirmed that former adviser Koldo García had Pedro Sánchez's phone number saved in his contacts under the label 'Number 1'. The discovery, included in the case file of the Koldo case, adds a new chapter to the corruption scandal engulfing the PSOE.
A nickname straight out of the mob
The detail has not gone unnoticed: identifying members of an organization by numbers is a classic of incivil plots, from bank robbers to James Bond films. In Koldo's case, having the Prime Minister as 'Number 1' suggests an internal hierarchy that goes beyond protocol. Some analysts point out that, in the 'mask case' circle, those involved allegedly used coded language to refer to kickbacks, such as the term 'centollo' (spider crab) to designate payments.
Reactions: between dismissal and alarm
While some downplay the matter, arguing that any contact can be saved as 'number 1', others see it as further proof of the alleged patronage network. The appearance of the initials 'P.S.' in other documents, or the existence of an email address 'pedrosanchez1212', fuel suspicions. What seems clear is that the UCO investigation keeps delivering surprises, and this new finding places Sánchez at the center of the affair, even if only as a priority contact.
