The investigation into Begoña Gómez, wife of Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, intensifies as Judge Juan Carlos Peinado seeks further documentation from the Complutense University of Madrid.

Gómez is under scrutiny for alleged influence peddling and business corruption related to her role as director of a university chair.

The judge has requested detailed records of payments made to Gómez and other faculty members, as well as information on student enrollments.

This comes as the Madrid Provincial Court prepares to decide on September 30 whether to dismiss the case, amid claims from Gómez's defense that the investigation is based on unfounded speculations.

The inquiry also extends to Gómez's connections with the rescue of Air Europa and her involvement with the IE Africa Center.

The outcome of the court's deliberation will be crucial in determining the future of the investigation.
