Evidence of the alleged bribery attempt to get the Mayor of Cartaya in 2015 has forced the PSOE regional leadership to take action on the matter and has ordered the opening of an information file (an internal investigation) and, in parallel, has he set aside Alexis Landero, his municipal spokesman and candidate for mayor in the censure motion he has filed with IU and Ciudadanos to unseat the current mayor, Manuel Barroso, who is also the victim of the alleged attempted bribery.

The intervention of the executive of Susana Díaz comes after EL MUNDO released the recordings that prove how Landero supposedly tried to buy the then PP candidate and today Mayor of Cartaya, to whom he promised a public job for himself and his wife, in addition to help for your company.

Sources from the Andalusian PSOE confirmed to this newspaper that the initiative has been taken in Seville, from which the order to open the information file as well as to replace Landero as candidate for mayor in the censure motion that, for the moment although with doubts, keep going.

Susana Díaz herself has been categorical this Tuesday when she affirmed that "there are things we do not like and we will not allow."

The socialist leader is accused of bribery in an investigation led by the Huelva Investigating Judge 1, María José Fernández, and the signs - again, recordings - that incriminate him have even been underpinned by the Huelva Hearing, until the point it is assumed that Caraballo will have to sit on the bench in a matter of months.

From the regional leadership it is alleged that, until its dissemination, the Andalusian PSOE did not know what happened in Cartaya, the alleged attempt by its candidate to buy from the PP, "supposed facts incompatible with socialist militancy and with an improper language of our values, "socialist sources told Europa Press.

From the Huelva PSOE they have told Europa Press that the party "values ​​and respects" the decision of the municipal spokesman to take "a step to the side" and "put ahead of the project of economic progress and social welfare that the cartayeros voted mostly in the municipal elections to your personal options.
