At the Spanish president, Mariano Rajoy , he is complicating governance and pacts with other political movements to seek re-election , due to the outbreak of another scandal of corruption involving his Popular Party (PP)
.
According to Spanish newspapers such as El País, it is this time of Operation Taula, to dismantle a corruption network formed by PP politicians who allegedly were paid kickbacks in exchange for awarding public contracts.
The epicenter is the autonomous community of Valencia dominated in the past 20 years by the PP, but its tentacles reached Alicante and Castellón.
The case arose from allegations that the deputy Rosa Perez Garrijo , Esquerra Unida, submitted to the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor in July 2014. Their tests pledged to Alfonso Rus , president of the council and former mayor of Valencia Xativa and his henchman, Marcelo Benavent , manager Local public company Impulse SA, and who have created paper companies to charge fees to contractors.
In one of the conversations recorded between these two characters is allegedly Rus who has tickets while dialogue with Benavent up reach the “two million peel”.
In a wide coverage of the case, the country indicates that the Spanish Civil Guard detained 24 people this week in Valencia, Alicante and Castellon. To that list more than 4 persons are investigated and have been summoned to testify before the judges added. The latter, the Spanish Civil Guard has requested, as a precautionary measure, the seizure of 150 high-end vehicles belonging to the suspects, 250 148 bank accounts and properties.
According to analysts polled by Colombia, with Operation Taula would be showing a high correlation between corruption and the PP. It is that, according to writer and columnist Spanish Corcoba Victor Herrera , “this is not an isolated case, what will. The issue of corruption in Spain is very serious “
Borja de Riquer , historian and professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, it is more straightforward to raise this correlation.” There a very large plot of corruption that is inherent to the same party. These are not isolated individuals who wanted to benefit. What is being demonstrated is that the party follows corruption, is in its own structure. “
Please Rajoy and his party, the PP, should be indicated in this case, as in a statement of three paragraphs, posted on its website, all kinds of corruption was rejected wherever it comes from, and the militancy of the suspects, who are kept the presumption of innocence was suspended.
“The PP has been and will continue to be relentless,” Rajoy told Telecinco, in a statement picked up by the Associated Press. The president added that he sees that the arrest of 24 people in Valencia, by the Taula case, damage its efforts to return to power after elections last month yielded an inconclusive result.
Analysts have different perspectives. Humberto Montero , journalist and columnist, believes that this scandal or adds or subtracts from Rajoy, who says he has done less than it should to curb corruption:
“He has tried to address the issue, but there was too much to cover up. That’s the risk you run when power structures are perpetuated in excess in some places. It is what happens with the 20 years since the ruling PP in Valencia; with 30 years of the Spanish Socialist Workers Party in Andalusia; and nationalists in Catalonia. I think that regeneration is good in every way. Occasionally, every eight years, should renew the majority, because if not, it falls at risk of ending up in things how are you “.
Meanwhile, Borja de Riquer Rajoy reproached who has tried to look away, “saying they were all personal cases” and that neither the PP nor its leaders have given explanations by the scandals that have been involved.
Historian hunch is that in shaping the new Spanish government could put potential allies such harsh conditions, that does not rule out, even, Rajoy ask the head.
