The plot of Leire Díez maneuvered to pressure Marchena and to be able to "successfully conclude" the amnesty

MadridThe supposed PSOE plot led by Santos Cerdán and Leire Díez also showed interest in the amnesty law. A 372-page Civil Guard report, to which ARA has had access, contains references to the norm. Specifically, the Central Operative Unit (UCO) found a Word document prepared in November 2024 by the so-called plumber of the PSOE that directly alluded to José Manuel Villarejo. It stated that the retired commissioner of the Spanish police, who these days sits on the defendant's bench for the Kitchen case, "has the evidence that would prove the corruption" of Manuel Marchena, who was the president of the Procés trial and was one of the judges who blocked the amnesty for Oriol Junqueras, Jordi Turull, Dolors Bassa and Raül Romeva (Carles Puigdemont, Toni Comín and Lluís Puig were also not amnestied by decision of Pablo Llarena).

Another Word document, from January 2025, titled "state of affairs" and also prepared by Leire Díez, detailed that at the end of July 2024 they reached an "agreement" with Villarejo for him to provide them with "all the documentation that has not come to light". Among this documentation, there would be "audios and payments involving" Marchena and the "role of the PP" in the patriotic police: "It involves the entire leadership of Rajoy's government and even Feijóo buying the Galician elections of 2012", he explained in writing. "The recordings pending delivery are truly explosive", he concluded.

A third document, titled "actions Catalonia", outlined the roadmap: "One of the obstacles to being able to be more agile to successfully conclude the issue of amnesty is the Supreme Court. We suffer from it too. It can be said that we are advancing, I think we are on the home stretch before the end of the stage so that the agreement with Villarejo and Paco Martínez is executed and we can obtain Villarejo's documentation, especially that which affects the Supreme Court, judges and prosecutors", it stated.

Request to Francisco Martínez

Precisely, the report also includes a conversation between Leire Díez and Francisco Martínez, who was number 2 in the Ministry of the Interior with Jorge Fernández Díaz as Secretary of State for Security. The PSOE plumber expressed her intention to reach an agreement with him: "You have to decide which is the right side of history. Help to unravel all this or let it continue to get more complicated. You are a weak link in all this, and it's not fair because you had people above you".

He put on the table an agreement with the Prosecutor's Office "so that things end up as minimally as possible". That is, without prison and trying to end it "as soon as possible". "We have to negotiate. We are starting a path that is not as easy as going to the sales. But it doesn't have any more problems either," he explained to him. And he justified that the best way was to agree with the Prosecutor's Office because his case could not be included in the amnesty: "My people were seeing how to do it to get you out of all this. Not in this amnesty, because it didn't apply".
