Overview

• Spain’s Guardia Civil (UCO) reports that Koldo García used cash of unknown origin to pay José Luis Ábalos, including rent between 2019 and 2021, leaving €8,550 unjustified within about €60,270 in cash linked to Ábalos from 2014 to 2024.
• The UCO cites messages and testimony indicating recurring cash deliveries, including alleged €10,000 payments from intermediary Víctor de Aldama and coded references to banknotes such as “chistorras” for €500 bills.
• PSOE informed the Supreme Court it made 84 cash reimbursements to Santos Cerdán since 2014 totaling €30,565.91, while party documentation reported by El Mundo shows 21 envelopes from 2021 to 2024, two above the €1,000 cash limit.
• The Tribunal de Cuentas previously found 232 party bank accounts unrecorded in PSOE’s 2019 consolidated balance and flagged accounting deficiencies that complicate verification of cash flows.
• ABC reports that Koldo García has recently executed notarial changes to property titles involving family members, a development investigators are examining as the case advances toward Ábalos’s Oct. 15 testimony and García’s the following day.
