Overview
- Judge Nuria Ruiz Tobarra directed Interparking Hispania to provide the entry and exit record for Maribel Vilaplana’s car at the Glorieta 24 horas garage within three days.
- The order followed Vilaplana’s sworn testimony that she did not have the ticket, supplied her licence plate, and said Carlos Mazón walked her to the garage after a lengthy meal at El Ventorro.
- Investigators aim to establish how long Vilaplana remained with Mazón and whether she could have heard calls with then–Justice chief Salomé Pradas.
- The court has arranged testimony from the owner of El Ventorro and summoned six senior officials from Mazón’s inner circle to clarify the disputed afternoon chronology, including a reported 37‑minute period when he was unreachable.
- After a year of proceedings, only former officials Salomé Pradas and Emilio Argüeso remain charged, and Mazón has declined three offers to appear voluntarily as an accused.
