The Anti -Corruption Prosecutor’s Office has reported at the National Court in favor of imputing the former president of Adif, Isabel Pardo de Vera, for the hiring of Jesica Rodríguez. The Public Ministry in this way supports the criteria of the Magistrate of the Supreme Court, Leopold Puente, who sent this part of the Koldo case to the National Court, an organ that started the investigations, so that he cits the board as investigated.
Tax sources confirm to the reason that Come indications For the head of the Central Court of Instruction number 2 of the National Court, Ismael Moreno, to interrogate him according to the alleged irregularities committed with the hiring of which he was José Luis Ábalos couple. It should be remembered that this corruption plot was prosecuted in this body, although a derivative was opened in the high court due to the condition of the then Minister of Development.
Within the framework of these last proceedings, the “plug” of Jesica Rodíguez first in Ineco and then in Tragsatec has been investigated. The young woman, who declared in February as a witness, told Ábalos for these contracts and said that I never got to work in time that was on the payroll in both public entities. The study of the seized messages also demonstrated that with the help of the then advisor to Ábalos, Koldo García, and his brother, Joseba García, falsified the time parts to simulate that he worked.
“Speaking indications” against Pardo de Vera
Asked about it as a witness, Pardo de Vera separated this matter. However, the analysis of the seized phones evidenced that he measured from Adif to be able to create the square to Jesica. In fact, your investigation for your contract in Tragsatec is now requested, since it was a place attached to the presidency of Adif. THE BASES OF THE CONTEST They expressly adapted to work experience Of this young woman who also falsified the curriculum to include her alleged experience in Ineco, a company for which she did not do any work.
“The existence of quite signs To consider that Doña Isabel Pardo de Vera could have had a relevant participation in which it is possibly irregular and capricious hiring by two person’s public companies chosen freely by Mr. Ábalos Mecowho would have had the relevant participation of the also investigated in this case Mr. García Izaguirre, “said the magistrate of the Supreme Court, Leopoldo Puente.
The bridge magistrate went to INECO (dependent on the Ministry of Transport) and through Tragsatec (dependent on the SEPI and protected by the Ministry of Agriculture) after the testimony of Jesica. The instructor of the Koldo case claimed all the information related to these contracts and the selection processes, since Rodríguez revealed in judicial headquarters that he did not come to work and even that at one point he left the laptop to a friend of his to turn it on from time to time and give him use.
The emails that dotted the former president of Adif
In the same way he explained that he did not have contact with personnel of both firms but emails revealed for reason pointed at the opposite direction. Specifically, on March 22, 2021, when he had already ended in INECO, he went to tragsatec personnel to inform them that They had formatted the computer “to be able to use it” In this new labor destination, which would evidence that there was a transfer of public signatures and that this second contract was prepared in advance to the end in Ineco.
In addition, on April 21 of that year, high positions of the company confessed in another letter that Isabel Pardo de Vera – which had until then denied any relationship with the facts – was aware of the matter. “Ignacio has told me They have already called the president of Adif to tell him that ‘what happens to Tragsa that we are forcing Jesus to do many things‘”, says the” mail “that was sent almost two months after they plug in tragsatec.
To this is also added the new extremes revealed by the UCO in one of its last trades sent to the Supreme Court, which collect the cross messages then between Koldo García and Pardo de Vera. They reflect that the then president of Adif was known about the existence of Jesus and, in fact, managed her interviews to give him, allegedly, appearance of legality to the process.
“Just one thing to call the girl to start the procedures for hiring as Joseba administrative that if not José (Ábalos) cuts my eggs “Koldo wrote to Pardo de Vera in February 2019, when his first plug in Ineco was created. The messages show that Pardo de Vera did not know who she was, although later she was interested in fulfilling the orders of the then minister. “They are with ittomorrow they call him, he cannot register without continuing a procedure, “said the directive.
