Prime Minister accused of police espionage Luis Bárcenas.

The head of the Central Court of Instruction Number 6 of the National Court Manuel García Castellón has agreed this Friday the imputation of former Interior Minister Jorge Fernández Díaz in the Kitchen operation.

According to legal sources advance to EL MUNDO, the instructor has summoned the former head of the Interior to testify as investigated on October 30.

A day before, the judge will interrogate the former Secretary of State for Security Francisco Martínez, who has already appeared twice in the National Court but took advantage of his right not to testify when the case was under summary secrecy.

On this occasion, Martínez is willing to collaborate with the Justice and tell the judge everything he knows.

On the other hand, the magistrate has for the moment refused to impute in this separate piece of the Villarejo case the former secretary general of the PP and former defense minister María Dolores de Cospedal and her husband Ignacio López del Hierro, as requested by the Prosecutor's Office Anti-corruption.

García Castellón considers for the moment premature to agree on these accusations and chooses to focus on finding out the orders that were allegedly given from the Interior to carry out a dirty war against Bárcenas after confessing that there was a Box B in the PP.

In the separate piece called Kitchen, the parapolice operation designed by Interior to spy on the former treasurer of the PP Luis Bárcenas after he confessed the irregular financing of the conservative formation before Judge Pablo Ruz.

According to the investigators, the objective of this operation was to steal material from Bárcenas that had been compromised for senior positions in the PP, including former Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy.

As stated in the summary of this cause of corruption, the operation was paid for with reserved funds.

In the espionage of Bárcenas, at least 53,000 euros of public money was spent on periodic payments to Bárcenas' driver, Sergio Ríos Esgueva, who was caught as a confidant.

Ríos Esgueva, together with a dozen senior police officers, most of whom are commissioners, appear as defendants in this proceeding.
