Legal sources have confirmed that the investigator of the case, Leopoldo Puente, has given his approval to this request by the UCO. The agents have requested that the financial institutions in which the accounts of three former Acciona directors investigated for alleged public works abuses be handled by the judicial authorities.

In particular, Puente has authorized the UCO to address several banks to send information about former Acciona director Justo Vicente Pelegrini, as well as those investigated by Tomás Olarte and Manuel José García Alconchel.

The Armed Institute has requested the Executive Service of the Commission for the Prevention of Money Laundering and Monetary Offences (SEPBLAC) to collect "all information suspected of money-laundering in which they have participated", as well as all movements made in its accounts from 2014 until receiving a court order.

As a result of the latest reports by the Central Operational Unit of the Civil Guard on the works awarded to the Acciona con Servinabar Temporary Union of Companies (UTE), the magistrate decided to charge all three, a company that is at the centre of the alleged plot formed by Cerdán, former Minister José Luis Ábalos and former ministerial adviser Koldo García.

In the case of the bank information requested on Erkolan, the agents explained that Servinabar transferred 367,290.43 euros between June 2020 and May 2025. They have stated that this period "coincides with that which the sister of former socialist leaderBethlehem Cerdán was hired in Servinabar ".

Sources close to Cerdán's defense explained in July that Bethlehem Cerdán worked in Servinabar from 1 January to 30 June 2020 as an administrative officer, charging 2,000 euros net per month, then working in the consultancy in charge of Servinabar's accounts, for the same money and with the same functions.

The investigating judge has also agreed to suspend the inspection procedures on Acciona with regard to the verification of services provided by Servinabar and UTE, according to the sources consulted.
