Monday was not a good day October 7 for Begoña Gómez And Pedro Sanchezwell, the Madrid Provincial Court approved that Judge Peinado continue to investigate the wife of the President of the Government for the offense of influence peddling and, to top it off, the Complutense University decided to cancel the only master’s degree that remained in this institution. In other words, a black Monday for the wife of the head of the Executive who will also have to testify before the commission of inquiry which will take place at the Parliament of Madrid. What is unusual is that Begoña Gómez angrily questions the cancellation of a master’s degree which, as OKDIARIO published, had only four students, which made it unviable. All that remained was for the president’s wife to attack, in addition to the judge, the university which had agreed to appoint her director against the most basic principles of merit, because at this stage it seems obvious that her positions of responsibility at the Complutense University was due to her status as the wife of the president of the government.
Begoña Gómez understands that the measure adopted by the university is “abnormal” And harms studentsas if the decision was a serious injustice, when what is “abnormal” is that a person without a university degree or professional career can direct two master’s degrees at a public university. That’s what’s unusual. The reputational damage that Begoña Gómez case caused the Complutense is enormous and, however, the wife of the President of the Government seems to have opted for the old strategy of becoming the victim of an alleged operation against her person. Just like Pedro Sánchez. That’s why.
The important thing in any case is that Justice decided that the investigations could not be archived, which it was not counting on. Pedro Sanchezthat appealed to the prosecution and the The public prosecutor will try to close the case. The shot backfired: the Begoña Gómez case, which is the Pedro Sánchez case, is more alive than ever.
