Judge Juan Carlos Peinado left two of the most controversial decisions of his career in the air for five days (and he has already accumulated quite a few in the case that he has promoted since 2024 against Begoña Gómez). But this Saturday, he finally communicated them: he has decided to open an oral trial against the wife of the President of the Government, in addition to withdrawing her passport, prohibiting her from leaving the country and forcing her to appear twice a month before a court. An unprecedented measure in the recent democratic history of Spain and one adopted at the request of the popular accusation, and which integrates extreme right-wing groups, such as the Vox political party. Peinado has imposed the same measures on Cristina Álvarez, Gómez’s advisor in La Moncloa.
