Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s minority government continues to face rough waters as multiple corruption scandals plague the family and close allies of the embattled socialist leader.

Today, the situation has worsened considerably, as Spanish Supreme Court judge Puente remanded ex-senior ruling Socialist Party official Santos Cerdán to be held in pre-trial detention, as part of an explosive corruption inquiry.

Reuters reported:

“The Cerdán case is the latest and most serious in a series of scandals that have left Sanchez having to apologize and fend off calls from opponents for a snap election.

Judge Leopoldo Puente is investigating allegations against Cerdán, former Transport Minister Jose Luis Abalos and the latter’s aide Koldo Garcia that they received kickbacks for awarding public works contracts.”

The multiple corruption scandals also involve Sánchez wife, Begoña Gómez (right), and his brother.

The incarcerated Cerdán was a big-wig in the Socialist hierarchy, until a string of credible allegations made him resign from his post as third-ranking party official and lawmaker.

“His resignation followed a statement from Puente citing ‘strong evidence’ of Cerdán’s possible involvement in the ‘improper awarding’ of contracts.

Puente said in a court document seen by Reuters that the former official could face charges including membership of a criminal organization, bribery and influence peddling.”

Cerdán was denied bail, with the judge expressing concerns ‘he might destroy or hide evidence’, and stating that ‘he is a flight risk’.

“The case is based on recordings spanning years, seized from Garcia’s home, which Puente said appeared to be authentic despite the defendants arguing that their voices had been manipulated. The judge said it appeared that Cerdan was the leader.”
