The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office inflicted another important setback on Tuesday on Ignacio González, former president of the Community of Madrid, by asking the judge to prosecute the former leader of the PP in the line of investigation of the

opened for the alleged irregular adjudication in 2007 of the Navalcarnero train to OHL.

The public ministry also requested that the same measure be adopted against Javier López Madrid, a former counselor of the construction company.

But he resigned, instead, to file an accusation against his father-in-law, Juan Miguel Villar Mir, former president of the company.

The judicial problems of González,

Esperanza Aguirre's

former

, do not abate.

This Tuesday's Anti-Corruption decision adds to the heavy backpack that the former president carries since the Civil Guard arrested him in 2017 for the

, one of the macro-summaries of corruption that have surrounded the Madrid PP in recent years.

In fact, Judge Manuel García-Castellón already sent González to trial last November for another of the lines of investigation opened in this case: the purchase of the Brazilian company Emissao by Canal de Isabel II, which allegedly served to distribute Millionaire illegal commissions and for which the Prosecutor's Office asks him for eight years in prison.

To this request for a prison sentence will now be added a new one, if the magistrate accepts the prosecution of the old popular leader.

And it is not the only front that it has: González is also accused in the

, and the National Court has just pointed this out in Gürtel's piece on box b of the PP, where judge José de la Mata investigates whether it was rigged another award of the Canal in exchange for funds for the opaque accounting of the conservative formation.

In the case of this Tuesday, as detailed by the Prosecutor's Office, the investigations have revealed that López Madrid and Rafael Arturo Martín, then director general of OHL's national construction area, "devised a plan" to ensure the award of the line work railway between Móstoles and Navalcarnero.

The suspects allegedly paid an illegal commission of 2.5 million dollars - more than 2.1 million euros at the current exchange rate - to, among others, the former president of the Community and Ildefonso Rodríguez, former managing director of Canal de Isabel II.

To do this, they had the “essential” collaboration of Felicísimo Damián Ramos, then OHL's Director of Management Control, and Adrián de la Joya, a businessman also charged in the

.

The public prosecutor has asked the judge to prosecute these six for influence peddling, bribery and documentary falsification.

On the other hand, anti-corruption has refused to proceed with the accusation against Juan Miguel Villar Mir, former president of the construction company and Minister of Finance during the Transition;

Tomás García Madrid, former director of the company;

and Jesús Trabada Guijarro, former CEO of the defunct public company Mintra.

"It has not been appreciated that there are sufficient evidence to be able to file an accusation [against them]," the Prosecutor's Office detailed this Tuesday in a statement.

Despite the fact that Villar Mir is left out, this part of the

splashes OHL squarely, with three of his former senior officials implicated.

Furthermore, based on various reports from the Civil Guard, Anticorrupción has already spoken in this case of the existence of "revealing" indications that point to "a generalized practice of paying commissions to public officials by those responsible for the OHL Group."
