The constant controversies surrounding García Ortiz unleash concern at the top of the Prosecutor's Office. The unanimous decision of the Illustrious Bar Association of Madrid (ICAM) to take the prosecutor's leak about the secret conversations held to court is a "unprecedented" event.
The decision of ICAM occurred despite the in extremis attempt by the attorney general to try to settle the controversy with the proposal to sign a joint statement last Friday with ICAM and the General Council of Spanish Lawyers. Prosecutors' sources explain that, after the Madrid Bar Association met urgently on Thursday and described what happened as "extremely serious", panic spread in Fortuny.
