The figure of Ángel Carromero has been placed as a key in the alleged espionage to the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, from the leadership of the PP.

His resignation as general director of Mayoral Coordination a few hours after the scandal broke has been during these weeks one of the points most exploited by the opposition in its questions to the mayor, José Luis Martínez Almeida.

And now everything indicates that they will be able to ask him himself.

Despite the fact that initially, according to sources consulted by EL MUNDO, his intention was not to attend, like the majority of those who were not summoned, that situation has changed.

Who made up the hard core of the alderman

has now asked the Board of Spokespersons to change the day of his intervention, April 4,

to be able to attend and has been willing to do so.

The ball is now on the court of that Board of Spokespersons, made up of all the groups of the Plenary of Cibeles, which will be the one who decides if that date can be changed.

The precedent exists in the case of the Government delegate,

Mercedes González, who has changed her summons due to scheduling problems.

The same case that Carromero now exposes

.

Now it will be the president of the Commission, Santiago Saura, from Ciudadanos, who will have to

present a new date for his statement with the approval of the majority of the spokesmen in which they are released

.

"They are offered options," they point out from that Board of Spokespersons.

PSOE, Más Madrid and Recupera Madrid want his appearance and according to the words of Begoña Villacís last Tuesday, where he accused those who did not attend of "boycotting" the investigation, the orange formation would also be in favor.

That already makes up a majority in the Board of Spokespersons to attend in the absence of determining the day.

According to sources consulted by this newspaper, one of the keys that Carromero is pursuing is that his statement comes after Almeida's, an appointment for the last session on May 9.

The mayor already put the focus on his then general director of Mayoral Coordination in his first appearance the same morning the case jumped when he assured that "at the slightest suspicion" any position in the City Council would have to resign.

Just a few hours later, his resignation was notified.

"It is not a matter of putting your hand in the fire or not, it is that if it is proven that there has been an irregular issue, it will be terminated.

There is no room for any irregular or exemplary conduct that stains an institution such as the Madrid City Council,

"

he

warned a few hours before the resignation took place, on February 17, the mayor, who since then has faced continuous questions from the opposition about that event.

Without going any further, last Tuesday, during the celebration of the municipal plenary session at the Palacio de Cibeles, it was Rita Maestre, spokesperson for Más Madrid, who focused on "the opaque" resignation of her right hand while accusing the mayor of not providing enough information and of "blocking"

the investigation commission that began last Monday with the only appearance of the general director of the Municipal Housing and Land Company (EMVS), Diego Lozano,

despite the fact that there were six summoned.

This Monday the second will be held, in which Carromero was summoned before requesting the change, and in which only the manager of the EMVS, José Antonio Acosta, and the hiring director, María Teresa Peral, will be expected.

Mercedes González has requested the change and

detective Julio Gutiez and the president of New Generations, Bea Fanjul, have not even responded, but their appearance is not expected.
