Overview
- Díez filed a brief opposing Hazte Oír’s request to extend the case to the PSOE, arguing there is no evidence she acted on behalf of the party or received any mandate.
- She says two April 2024 meetings at Ferraz do not establish party linkage, noting one was arranged by journalist Patricia López and citing prior testimonies by Santos Cerdán and Antonio Hernando.
- Díez asks the court not to summon Ion Antolín and Juan Francisco Serrano, calling their appearances unnecessary because Cerdán and Hernando have already described the meeting’s content.
- She also contests calls to hear Cristina Narbona, José Luis Ábalos and Koldo García, but does not oppose José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero testifying if limited to his contacts with anti-corruption prosecutor José Grinda.
- The case examines alleged attempts to derail investigations, with Díez and businessman Javier Pérez Dolset under scrutiny, while she rejects claims of government ties or patronage hires and acknowledges only a 2017 freelance payment from the PSOE in Cantabria.
