PP Box B investigator claims he was asked not to mention Rajoy
She also claims that the report did not allow her to reflect the name of former PP General Secretary María Dolores de Cospedal, although she was listed as the agent of an account.
The chief inspector of the UDEF, Manuel Morocho, who led the investigation of the Gürtel case, has explained the pressure exerted by his superiors when he was asked in early 2013 for a report on the papers of Bárcena with the PP 's B accounting and has assured him that he was asked not to mention the name of Mariano Rajoy.
When asked by the PSOE lawyer, Gloria Pascual, whether she had received instructions that the name of the former President of the Government should not appear in the report, the head of the UDEF replied: "He is a special person who was specifically individualized not to leave" and linked it to an instruction issued in this regard by the Commissioner General.
He also recalls that when he included in a report the name of Ignacio López del Hierro, then husband of former PP General Secretary María Dolores de Cospedal, he was called the next day by the head of his unit, Manuel Vázquez. He explains that at that moment he told him that he had made a "serious mistake" in mentioning him and asked him to rectify it, but he refused because he could not "omit anyone"and took him to speak to the judge.
The inclusion of the name caused "concern on the entire scale of command," and "eluded" the Chief of Section, Miguel Ángel Cuevas, to describe Lopez del Hierro as a "friend" of Commissioner José Manuel Villarejo, one of Kitchen's defendants.
She also claims that the report did not allow her to reflect the name of former PP General Secretary María Dolores de Cospedal, although she was listed as the agent of an account.
