The chairman of the Belate recruitment bureau has denied corruption, at least as far as he is concerned

Jesus Polo was the first to speak in the Committee of Inquiry of the Navarre Parliament about public works tenders.

PAMPLONA, 14/10/2025.- El presidente de la mesa de contratación de la obra para duplicar los túneles de Belate Jesús Polo, abre este martes las comparecencias de la Comisión de Investigación del Parlamento de Navarra sobre las licitaciones de obra pública. Los grupos parlamentarios decidieron que la Comisión comenzara analizando las obras de Belate, que son las últimas, de hecho, están en marcha. Descartó así hacerlo de forma cronológica desde el año 2011 hasta hoy. EFE/ Jesus Diges

Today the Committee of Inquirywas set up in the Navarre Parliament for the study of public works contracts, and it began with the last work by order, around the expansion of the Belate tunnels

It was precisely Jesus Polo, chairman of the Belate Tunnel Works Contracting Bureau, who was the first to speak to the Commission, who denied that there was "corruption" at least as far as he was concerned, and stressed that he had not received any political pressure, that he did not know Santos Cerdán and that he did not know that he had anything to do with any of the companies that had obtained the contract.

Going further, they ask him if he can confirm that there has been no corruption, and he replies that he cannot assume that there has been no corruption, but that he has not. 

He has also pointed out that he has not spoken to any member of the Government prior to today's appearance or to politicians, nor has he received any instruction regarding the Temporary Union of Companies (UTE) that won the work, consisting of Acciona, Osés and Servinabar. 

He has thus answered the questions asked by Javier Esparza of UPN(who was the first to ask questions).
