• Courts The prosecutor in the 'Stampa case' accuses the right hand of Dolores Delgado of "unpresentable meddling"

  • 'Villarejo Case' All the information about the retired commissioner

Former commissioner José Manuel Villarejo has tried this Friday to speak in the trial against him held by the National Court.

The main defendant in the

Tandem case

is a lawyer, so he has the power to sit on the bench and not on the bench and exercise his own defense.

This is what some other defendant has already done in the macro-trial and Villarejo has tried to do so, again without success.

"Shut up," the president of the court, Judge

Angela Murillo

,

told him

when, after several hours of raising previous questions and new evidence to examine in the trial, Villarejo's lawyer,

Antonio José García Cabrera

, informed the court that the defendant-lawyer himself was to continue to propose more evidence for trial.

"More evidence?" Said the president.

"We have no choice but to propose all this extensive evidentiary activity," García Cabrera replied.

"We need to know the truth and if this man is corrupt, that he be convicted, and if not, that he be acquitted with all favorable pronouncements. [...] It is a very complex case, Your Honor. All that has been said so far This defense proposed it and now Mr. Villarejo is going to propose it in his own defense. "

As she had done in the previous days, the president stressed that she only wanted a voice in defense.

"You are exercising the defense, Mr. Lawyer," he said, when Villarejo intervened: "May you please, Your Honor, I am a co-defender."

-I'm not talking to you.

-I am a partner ...

-Shut up please.

-I also have the right, with all due respect, to ...

- Mr. Defendant, shut up!

- Defendant and lawyer, Your Honor.

- Will you shut up, please?

Here at this venue you can't say what you want.

That's it, it's over, let's take a break.

The result of the incident is that Villarejo will have to wait for his turn to be interrogated as the accused if he wants to be heard at the trial, assuming that the Chamber will not consider any of the allegations of the accused so as not to go ahead with the oral hearing.

For now, the hearing will resume with the response of the

Prosecutor's Office

to all the issues that the defenses have requested to resolve before starting the interrogations.

Ask that Sánchez, Marlaska and Delgado declare

Among the evidence that Villarejo's defense has asked to practice in the trial are the statements of the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, the Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, and the State Attorney General, Dolores Delgado. In recent years, all of them have staged "incriminating demonstrations" against the retired commissioner.

On the side of the PP, the list has been extended to former Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, former Secretary General María Dolores de Cospedal and former Interior Minister Jorge Fernández Díaz.


"Why did Mr. Villarejo have Mr. Rajoy's mobile phone? Is it normal for a commissioner to report to a Prime Minister?", Said the lawyer for the policeman.

The possibility that Rajoy and Villarejo had maintained contact has been investigated in the piece on the

Kitchen operation

, another branch of the

Villarejo case

.

The judge in the case, contrary to the criteria of

Anti

-

Corruption

, recently closed that avenue of investigation.
