Isabel Díaz Ayuso, President of the Madrid Community, and her chief of staff, Miguel Ángel Rodríguez, are under fire for allegedly spreading misinformation about confidential communications involving Ayuso's partner, Alberto González Amador.
González Amador is accused of committing two tax fraud offenses, facing potential prison time.
Despite attempts to settle the matter, including a prohibited tax regularization, the case remains unresolved.
Ayuso and Rodríguez reportedly leaked selective and misleading information to the media, sparking controversy.
The prosecutor handling the case has denied any political motives, emphasizing the focus on alleged tax crimes.
The scandal has raised questions about the misuse of confidential information and the integrity of public officials.
