The newborn 2025 appears intense in the courts of Justice. The most striking are the cases of Alberto González Amador, Isabel Díaz Ayuso’s boyfriend, who could appear before the judges this year, accused of some tax crime and another of document falsification. Precisely, due to alleged leaks on the subject of the Madrid president’s boyfriend, the State Attorney General is also being investigated, Alvaro García Ortiz, while judicial investigations continue into Begoña Gómez, wife of the President of the Government, a cause that is becoming increasingly persistent.
Nor will the president’s brother, several members of the Pujol clan, be spared from appearing in the courtrooms, and in the month of February, they will appear Luis Rubiales, for the kiss to the soccer player Jenny Hermoso, a matter that arouses enormous expectation. The case processes are also striking. Koldo and the former minister José Luis Ábalos, for, among other issues, corruption in the purchase of masks during the pandemic. This is what will be brought before the judges in 2025. Luis Medina Abascal, in one of the processes that will raise the most media noise in this coming year.

Anti-corruption specifies that “The 6.24 euros that the Madrid City Council paid to the two commission agents for each of the million masks was, by far, the highest that a Spanish city council of more than three hundred thousand inhabitants paid for this type of product. The prosecutor’s brief says that “the intention of the two accused was to enrich oneself excessively at the expense of a situation of extreme need and lack of sanitary materials, selling the products for a price much higher than that offered by the suppliers.
Naty Abascal’s family is worried about the media trial to which the youngest of the Medina brothers will be subjected again, although they assure Informalia that what counts will be what is demonstrated at trial. They consider that “Luis has not committed any crime”, since, as they explain, “he did not receive a single cent from the Madrid city council, he did not collect public money.” These sources clarify that the person who paid Medina and Luceño was the Chinese businessman who sent the masks. And they emphasize that, unlike Koldo and Ábalos, who handled state money, in the “mask case”, Luis Medina was only someone who facilitated contact after a phone call.
