Montero Denies Any Ties to Salazar as PSOE Acts After Prosecutors Open Inquiries

She urged quicker, victim‑focused procedures, noting roles were halted once the case reached the courts.

Overview

  • María Jesús Montero said the complaints concern former PSOE figure Paco Salazar and the party leader in Torremolinos, Antonio Navarro.
  • She stated Salazar has no current contract or professional link with the PSOE, PSOE‑A or Moncloa and is dedicated to private work, whose specifics she does not know.
  • Montero said disciplinary mechanisms were triggered when judicial diligencias were opened and the party demanded the immediate handover of institutional records.
  • She acknowledged the internal timelines have been "excessively long" and called for faster procedures with stronger accompaniment for complainants.
  • Montero rejected claims the party shielded Salazar and voiced confidence that the Fiscalía can gather the information needed to fully clarify the facts.
