The General Coordinator of Budgets of the City of Madrid, Elena Collado, is the main witness in the trial for the case of the masks that Luis Medina and Alberto Luceño feel on the bench. During his statement, Collado, responsible for the purchases of the Consistory in Pandemia, has sealed the thesis of the deception by the defendants: “They did not charge commissions. I was personally told by both both and several times. ”
After receiving an email from Luis Medina and being warned to read it and answer for Matilde García Duarte, right hand of the mayor, Collado spoke with Naty Abascal’s son and the previous Duke of Fair several times and then went on to do it with the partner From the previous one, Alberto Luceño. “I was very worried about what was happening. Hundreds of people died a day. He had a woman working at the hospital. Medina and he wanted to help. I thought that in a disorderly and altruistic way. They wanted to help Madrid, ”said Collado.
The two commission agencies remained in commissions 6 of the 11 million euros that the Madrid City Council entered the bank account of the Malaysian Supplier. Medina and Luceño are accused of aggravated fraud and other crimes. To be convicted of aggravated fraud, the court must consider the deception to the Madrid City Council accredited.
At one point in his statement, the Anti -Corruption Prosecutor, Luis Rodríguez Sol, asked the head of purchases of the Consistory if they had reconsidered the purchase of knowing that the defendants stayed with more than 50% of the disbursed public money. The answer has been the following: “Saying this, five years later… We would certainly have rethink everything, we would have consulted with legal services and the police, and I don’t know what we had done, we were desperate. There were people dying in the street. The legal good to protect was the lives of our employees. We would have stopped dry. We would have valued pros and cons. ”
Neither the investigating judge nor anti -corruption valued the possibility of investigating the City Council at any time of the instruction. In fact, the Consistory, who did not denounce the deception until the Prosecutor’s Office complained, exercises the private accusation and claims more than 7 million euros to the commission agents.
During the trial an audio has been heard that Medina sent to Collado in March 2020, in his first contacts. The commissioner defended the quality of the graphene masks that he was going to give, actually selling, to the City Council. “They are the Royce Rolls of the masks. The president of China takes them. ”
