This Thursday, in addition, the magistrate has opened a new line of investigation to discover why it was not Begoña herself who collected the judicial summons from her.

Neither of us are naive. They do it because she is my partner (…) She is a hard-working and honest woman who claims her right to work without giving it up because of the responsibilities of her husband”.
