Chivite cried when he said about Cerdan, "It doesn't match the person I've shared my career with."
In addition, the Foral Government has announced that it will request audits of contracts awarded to companies included in the UCO report.
The President of the Navarre Government, María Chivite, was unable to contain the tears when she spoke today at a press conference about former PSOE Secretary of Organization Santos Cerdán.
During his appearance after hearing the UCO report from the Civil Guard, in response to questions from journalists, he acknowledged that it is not an easy day for him and explained that he has been able to read the report above and that what he has seen "does not correspond to the person with whom I have shared my political career, my party partner and friend".
"Therefore, while respecting the presumption of innocence, I believe that this is what we must all do, as long as there is no trial that so decides, I hope that Santos will be able to prove his innocence. It is a difficult day, "he said.
The President of Navarre has also announced that the Foral Government will request audits of the contracts awarded to the companies included in the UCO report, according to which Santos Cerdán and Koldo García allegedly obtained commissions to obtain works in Navarre before both jumped to Madrid.
Maria Chivite has stated that the UCO report "contains the names of companies that have been linked to this Community and to this Foral Administration".
It therefore explains that it has informed the parliamentary groups that make up the Government of the implementation of three initiatives. Firstly, the Foral Government will request the Office of Good Practice and Anti-Corruption to study all the awards that the Foral Administration has had with the companies listed in this report. It has also announced that an external audit of these contracts will be carried out and, finally, it will request that the Chamber of Auditors examine these contracts.
Chivite has made this announcement, "without prejudging any specific allocation, without knowing that they have been illegal in Navarre, we will give Navarre society guarantees that there will be no doubt. If anything is discovered through these three measures, we will go all the way."
