Overview
- National Police economic-crimes officers searched Plus Ultra’s Madrid headquarters early Thursday in an active judicial operation.
- Investigators carried out domiciliary searches of senior executives and are forensically copying electronic devices for analysis.
- The inquiry is being led by Madrid’s Court of Instruction No. 15, which authorized the seizures and evidence extraction.
- Sources close to the company say Plus Ultra is cooperating with Policía Judicial as the investigation unfolds.
- The carrier received a €53 million rescue from Spain’s SEPI in 2021, and it has recently been cited by figures in the separate ‘Koldo’ case, while political claims about the bailout’s origins are disputed.
