PP Files Lawsuit Against PSOE Over Corruption

Published: 2024-10-13

The Popular Party (PP) has announced plans to file a lawsuit against the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) for alleged illegal financing, bribery, and influence peddling linked to the 'Koldo case'.

This move follows recent revelations suggesting systematic corruption involving President Pedro Sánchez, who is alleged to be at the center of the scandal.

The PP's Secretary General, Cuca Gamarra, has called for Sánchez's resignation, citing the gravity of the accusations.

Meanwhile, the far-right party Vox has urged the PP to take stronger action against the government, emphasizing the need for unity in addressing the alleged corruption.

The lawsuit aims to shift the focus of the investigation towards the PSOE as a potential beneficiary of the corrupt network.

The political tension continues to escalate as both parties prepare for legal and parliamentary battles.
