Martínez Aguayo replaced Griñán as head of the Ministry of Finance when he was appointed president of the Board after the resignation of Manuel Chaves, who then joined the Government of José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero.

With his entry into prison, announced today by the newspaper Abc, Martínez Aguayo complies with what was dictated by the Court of Seville, which, given that the sentence is final, denied a possible postponement of his execution while the pardons that the defenses have been processed requested to the Government of Pedro Sánchez for the convicted or the nullity incident raised, in some cases, before the Supreme Court.
