Overview
- Judge Juan Carlos Peinado demanded all emails between the Instituto de Empresa and Cristina Álvarez, as well as messages from Gómez’s Moncloa account, for UCO analysis within the malversación probe.
- The IGAE report sent to the European Public Prosecutor concludes Red.es adjudications tied to Gómez’s recommendation letters breached contracting law and describes a possible fraud of law in how subjective criteria were assessed.
- IGAE says the contracting board, not an independent expert committee, evaluated non‑formula criteria and that the pricing formula dampened differences, with two reviewed expedients nearing €14 million and involving EU funds.
- The UCO’s email review indicates Álvarez actively handled sponsorships and administrative exchanges for the UCM cátedra, including correspondence with Indra about contract addenda and signatures.
- Emails cited by investigators show Álvarez proposed a clause for Mindway Ecosystems to allocate 10% of any profits to the cátedra and to bar reuse of course content upon contract termination, while the UCO cyber unit saw no content‑altering edits in reviewed files.
