The Spanish National High Court is investigating five contracts related to Leire Díez, Antxon Alonso and Vicente Fernández, and the companies involved include Tubos Reunidos and Erri Berri.

The judge of the National High Court, Antonio Piña, is investigating five suspicious works worth 132 million euros for alleged commission payments between 2021 and 2022, in which Leire Díez, Antxon Alonso and Vicente Fernández would be involved. According to the UCO, the three allegedly received tips from the Basque company Tubos Reunidos to speed up an award, and from the New Country of Navarra to enter a work in Asturias.

Tubos Reunidos had until a few months ago as adviser to former SEPI President Vicente Fernández, as the company acknowledges, but has stated that it has no relationship with Leire Díez and Antxon Alonso. The company has explained to EITB that it has made available to the court information on the consultancy contract signed with Fernández and has shown its willingness to cooperate with the justice system.



According to the Civil Guard's report, Tubos Reunidos allegedly paid commissions to speed up the award of a $113 million contract, as can be seen from messages exchanged by the three alleged perpetrators in a Whatsapp group called s. According to the UCO, all three would have received commissions of around 115,000 euros from the Basque company.

Among the suspicious contracts is also Erri Berri in Navarre. Olite allegedly paid 400,000 euros to the three defendants for obtaining a contract at the Asturias Business Park. Specifically, Erri Berri was one of the companies registered by the UCO this Thursday.
