The PSOE argues that these accounts are not connected to the party’s activities, statutes, or principles and warns that funds could have been used illegally. They want only the prosecution (Fiscalía) to have access to this data and for irrelevant information to be removed. The judge had ordered the tracking of up to 80 bank accounts, many tied to already indicted individuals, as part of an investigation into alleged efforts to destabilize legal cases affecting both the PSOE and President Pedro Sánchez’s family. The PSOE emphasizes that their accounts are relevant because they have not yet been formally investigated.

This request was rejected by the Senate’s presiding body, which is dominated by the PP, citing legal reasons. The rejection was based on legislation that classifies certain information related to the CNI as confidential, allowing such disclosures only through specific parliamentary procedures.

PSOE accused Feijóo of reverting to opposition leadership tactics and suggested he is aligning with extreme-right agendas.
