30.06.2025The Day Cerdán Was Jailed
Spanish media's editorial focus on June 30 centered predominantly on the Koldo corruption case, specifically Santos Cerdán's escalating legal situation. The day began with reports of Cerdán's prior personal negotiations for a €40 million contract and his appearance before the Supreme Court, where he was met with public insults. By late morning, the Public Prosecutor's Office requested his provisional imprisonment without bail, accusing him of leading a criminal organization. Cerdán claimed "political persecution." Crucially, by midday, the judge ordered Cerdán's unconditional imprisonment on charges including criminal organization, bribery, and influence peddling. Reports detailed his initial hours in Soto del Real prison. Politically, Cerdán admitted negotiating amnesty as "essential for investiture," while President Sánchez distanced himself. Amidst Cerdán's jailing, Zapatero assumed his role in negotiations, meeting Puigdemont in Switzerland, signaling a shift in socialist party dynamics.
