Two PSOE charges have testified on Wednesday in the trial against the Attorney General of the State, Alvaro García Ortiz, and have deniedhaving received from the Public Prosecutor's Office the email sent by the defense of Alberto González Amador (couple of Isabel Díaz Ayuso) on February 2, 2024.

On the third day of the trial in the Supreme Court, the session began with statements by Senator  and former PSOE leader in MadridJuan Lobato and former Moncloa office Pilar Sánchez Acera .

The first to testify was Lobato , who, in his words, did not get the information about Amador from the Public Prosecutor's Office. However, he asked the source of the message "out of prudence" because he "thought he might have that interpretation." The focus of the interrogation he was subjected to was the WhatsApp messages he exchanged with former Moncloa advisor Pilar Sánchez Acera.

Then it was theturn of Sanchez Acera, who stressed that he "never" received that message from Amador's defense. He explained that a media outlet sent him a photograph of the message and refused to clarify that he had received it from the Public Prosecutor's Office.

Subsequently, several journalists who reported on the negotiations between the Public Prosecutor's Office and the defence of González Amador have testified. In the first testimony, the editors haveinvoked their right to professional secrecy and have not specified which sources sent them the information they published in the media.
