[93569] Storm in Spain: Prime Minister's wife to be prosecuted for corruption

Legal drama in Spain: Prime Minister's wife expected to face trial

Political upheaval in Spain: A judge in Madrid has decided to prosecute Begoña Gómez, wife of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, on charges of corruption and embezzlement of funds. According to the 'Political Arena' channel, Gómez is required to report to the court every 15 days, and she is prohibited from leaving the country's borders. If convicted, she could face a heavy prison sentence of up to 24 years.

The 'Abu Ali Express' channel, which expresses a sharply critical position toward Sánchez and defines him as a "distinct hater of Israel," notes that Gómez's passport was taken due to fear that she would attempt to flee the country.

According to the analysis by 'Abu Ali Express', there is public criticism in Spain claiming that Sánchez's combative statements against Israel over the last two years were intended, among other things, to "divert fire from his wife's corruption cases," in which she allegedly exploited her high status for the benefit of securing employment contracts.
