The defense of the Executive of the Juan José Güemes Company Institute has submitted a letter in the Court of Instruction number 41 of Madrid to ask Judge Juan Carlos Peinado to file the case for him, as he ended up charged after being summoned as a witness … for a contradiction with a previous testimony that turned out not to be such. “The reasons why Mr. Güemes has the status of investigated in the present case, as informed by the instructor, have no basis,” says the letter, to which ABC had access.
Güemes, in times counselor of Health in Madrid with a PP government, was summoned as a witness in November last year in relation to the hiring of Begoña Gómez, wife of the President of the Government, to direct the Africa Center of the Institute of Business. The head of Human Resources of the Institution had already declared as a witness, Sonsoles Gil de Antuñano, who placed him as the person who entrusted him to do the procedures for hiring.
When the Executive presented to the judge that he effectively instructed human resources but that the signing of Gómez had nothing to do with his status as a woman from the President of the Government because the process had begun many months before, the instructor interrupted him and He told him that he was contradicting Gil from Antuñano and that in those circumstances he could even remember a caress between them. He suspended the statement and summoned him as accused.
The point is that when he returned to the court and asked why fact he was investigated, the judge clarified that they derive from that alleged contradiction, “that they could even lead to testimony for an alleged crime of false testimony.” “On those facts is what has been summoned to you as an investigated,” consists of the transcripts of the appearance.
“He never said that he was hired for being the wife”
«But the truth and truth is that when this procedural representation has had full knowledge of the declaration of Mrs. Gil of Antuñano, which has been given access for being part of the cause, Mrs. Gil de Antuñano never said that Mrs. Begoña Gómez He will be hired for being Mr. President of the Government, ”says the defense of Güemes.
“Yes, he said,” he says, “who gave her the instruction that she formalized a contract with her was her superior superior, Mr. Güemes, but nothing about the reasons for the hiring of Mrs. Gomez, because she did not know them. Therefore, the reasons why Mr. Güemes has the status of investigated in the present case, as informed by the instructor, have no basis, ”he says.
Remember that, in any case, “even if those reasons were true,” the court would not be competent, because it would be a crime without relation to investigation into Begoña Gómez and so, another court would have to investigate it.
