The National Court demands the documents that link the bank with the ex-commissioner during Francisco González's term

  The judge of the National Court, Manuel García Castellón, had asked BBVA to deliver all the documentation referring to the work entrusted to former commissioner José Miguel Villarejo during Francisco González's term as president of the bank. The entity has four days, until Monday 18, to send the reports that are in its power on the relationship maintained directly or indirectly, through the security company Cenyt linked to Villarejo, according to judicial sources.

  This requirement comes after the National Court itself required several media to have information about the alleged plot of espionage that would have entrusted businessmen, politicians and journalists to avoid the disembarkation of Sacyr in the shareholding of BBVA and seize power. In order to clarify the facts investigated, Judge García Castellón has carried out that same judicial action, demanding from BBVA a list of all the contracts and other significant documents that linked him to Villarejo from 2005 to 2017.

In the corporate annual report sent to the CNMV on Wednesday, BBVA acknowledged the reputational and economic impact that the conclusions of the internal investigation commissioned to PwC, Garrigues and Uría could have, if the extremes in several leaks were confirmed since January. to facts from 14 years ago. In particular, it refers to this case as "a recruitment of allegedly irregular activity".

However, the group chaired by Carlos Torres clarified in that document that he has not had proof of the demands that were going to present some of the theoretically spied citizens, such as the former socialist minister and former director of the Research Department of the bank itself, Miguel Sebastián, or the action that the Clean Hands organization was going to propose.
