The court investigating the management of Luis Rubiales at the head of the RFEF has summoned the

former number two

of the federative body,

Andreu Camps, as a witness at the request of the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office,

on

February 23. T

he Court of Instruction number 4 of Majadahonda has also summoned the former members of the Ethics Committee, Araceli Mangas and José Luis Pérez Triviño.

The intention of the Public Ministry is to collect the testimony of the former heads of this department, which was blown up due to discrepancies with Rubiales when the first scandals involving the team of the former head of Spanish football broke out.

Among them, the diversion of funds carried out by the former president of the Catalan federation and former vice president of the RFEF,

Andreu Subies,

who had to resign after EL MUNDO revealed that he bought an apartment and a restaurant using this formula.

This newspaper revealed the internal emails of the Ethics Committee after this episode. "I do not accept being in an organization just to let time pass, appear like a peacock and have the hope of earning something by working as little as possible. I do not accept being in organizations that can serve as a cover or a face lift [... ]

The time of slave exploitation and serfdom has long passed

." With these words, the professor of Public International Law and International Relations

Araceli Mangas

addressed Andreu Camps, on January 16, 2020,

now summoned by the judge also as a witness and who thus communicated her irrevocable resignation shortly before this anti-corruption body of the RFEF will disintegrate.
