Overview
- PP Senate spokesperson Alicia García said the party will use its majority to call Francisco Salazar to testify in the Koldo inquiry, with the date to be set by the commission.
- Pedro Sánchez has removed Antonio Hernández, Salazar’s former number two in Moncloa, over alleged complicity in a cover-up, with the Council of Ministers expected to formalize the dismissal on Tuesday.
- Party sources indicate the PSOE’s anti-harassment body aims to deliver its report within two to three weeks and may refer the case to prosecutors depending on its conclusions.
- Sánchez and the party have apologized for delays and poor victim support, while feminist sectors and leaders such as Susana Díaz warn of reputational and electoral damage if accountability falls short.
- The accusations against Salazar include explicit sexual misconduct described by several women; he resigned from posts in July and recently left the PSOE, and spokesperson Pilar Alegría now says the internal probe will go to the end.
