Two of the three associations of prosecutors consider that the State Attorney General and former Minister of Justice, Dolores Delgado,

, brother of the Madrid president,

benefited .

Isabel Diaz Ayuso.

In a statement, the Professional and Independent Association of Prosecutors (APIF) says that "in the face of the proliferation of cross complaints and various political forces in relation to the events that have affected the Popular Party in recent days, we must state that, in our opinion , the Attorney General of the State, of whom we all remember the enthusiasm with which she defended the political positions of the PSOE a little over a year ago and the bitterness with which she reviled the opposition, should refrain from intervening as head of the Public Ministry.

According to the APIF, Delgado's abstention seeks "not to damage the prestige of the institution" and must be carried out "in all criminal cases that directly or indirectly may cause harm or benefit to the PSOE, the party to which it is related to the Attorney General".

"The institution has resources to supply the performance of the attorney general, at this time through a professional of great category such as the deputy prosecutor of the Supreme Court,

, not contaminated for political reasons," adds this group of prosecutors. .

what the law says

Likewise, the president of the Association of Prosecutors,

, in statements to EL MUNDO, believes that "it rains pours" in the case of the complaints that affect the Díaz Ayuso family.

"The AF has been requesting the attorney general to abstain in specific cases in which her image of impartiality could be clearly affected, in cases, for example, against politicians from the same party for which she campaigned and for which she was Minister of Justice, without attending to our request, nor giving us an answer and without formally abstaining".

Dexeus maintains that article 351 of the Organic Law of the Judiciary (LOPJ) provides that "judges or prosecutors who return to the judicial or prosecutorial career after having held a position such as the one held by Delgado, must refrain, and in their In this case, they may be challenged from intervening in any matters in which political parties or groups are a party, or those of their members who hold or have held public office.

The majority association of the prosecutor's career recalls that "in this way the international commitments regarding the regime of discretionary appointment positions were incorporated into the internal legal system. You can consult the United Nations Convention against corruption, made in New York on 31 December October 2003, the successive GRECO reports, or the numerous recommendations and declarations made in the sphere of the United Nations and the Council of Europe. With even greater reason, if possible, this duty falls on the person who is in charge of the tax career", assures Dexeus.
