The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office opposes the pardon for Griñán and the rest of those convicted in the 'ERE case' The public ministry considers that the prosecuted conduct of the eight former senior officials cannot go unpunished, through the commutation of the prison sentence. The decision adopted by the Seville Court only affects eight of the nine former senior Officials convicted of embezzlement.
As former general director Juan Márquez saw his sentence reduced in the Supreme Court, it will be this instance that decides on his pardon.
