Ibredrola commissioned the currently imprisoned commissioner José Manuel Villarejo to spy on the ACS president, Florentino Pérez , to be able to handle material against him in case of "conflict". This is stated in the investigation that continues in the National Court on the hiring of the companies of the retired commissioner by the electric company. The orders of the company headed by Ignacio Sánchez Galán were several and the aforementioned FLO, as the president of Real Madrid was appointed, was called the "Posy project".

The project, which was developed in 2009, had the declared objective of "verifying any data and / or circumstance of interest about FLO and / or its human team, that could be used in a conflict scenario, in case it finally arrived to take place. " The context of that commission was the rivalry between Galán and Pérez for control of the electric company.

According to Anticorruption, the company Cenyt, controlled by Villarejo and his partner Rafael Redondo, presented to the head of Security of Iberdrola, the investigated Antonio Asenjo, two progress reports and a definitive one dated May 4, 2009, specifying the investigations carried out about Florentino Pérez. It was, as its authors wrote, the result of a "penetration strategy in the FLO environment and new lines of work to search for sensitive data that directly affects FLO and / or its more direct environment".

Anticorruption considers that from the documents seized, there are indications that Florentino Pérez's phone had been tapped. He reaches that conclusion when verifying that a document reads this about a businessman's conversation with a journalist: "Tracked data indicates that last Friday, before FLO went to the IB headquarters, he talked for a long time with Ferreras and according to the environment of the journalist, noted him uneasily insisting if there was a possibility that something would leak, just now, with the request of the Counselor, but what is more, in front of the RM elections about to take place on the end of May. "

The Prosecutor General's Office continues explaining that the espionage work resulted in the final report containing references to "multiple" real or alleged actions by Florentino Pérez with which he could be harmed. Prosecutors list them: "The protection of their personal image through the media, their connection to various investigations and court cases, such as their participation in the presentation of false evidence to obtain the acquittal of two relevant businessmen in the Urbanor Case , his business history until reaching the presidency of the ACS Group for the first time, the use of his status as President of Real Madrid CF to achieve lucrative businesses on the Asian continent in 2005, avatars of various football signings that could compromise his football club, its connection with shell companies that it would use for its opaque activities with identification of its figureheads, its investments in China, the existence of payments to certain politicians in exchange for juicy concessions in South American countries, the strategy to re-enter the 2009 to the presidency of Real Madrid CF, serious irregularities in ACS accounting, a project in Castellón called Castor, where. ACS, together with Enagás and Eurogas would promote the underground storage of natural gas, the relationship of Florentino Pérez in Equatorial Guinea with the financing and support of the opponent Severo Moto until he was arrested for an attempted coup, or the use of people from his security service to obtain information that negatively affects Iberdrola's president. "

The discovery of the documentation referring to Florentino Pérez after Villarejo's arrest caused the businessman to appear in the case as injured and the judge and prosecutors took his statement. Activities against him could involve bribery and the discovery and disclosure of secrets.

In his statement at the Hearing, the president of ACS explained that "he had no knowledge that he had been investigated" by Cenyt until February 2019, when two journalists indicated that there were reports and recordings in the Villarejo case and that he could avoid his broadcast in exchange for money.
