The Commission of Inquiry has suspended the appearance of Cerdán's wife, who has refused to testify on health issues
Despite this decision, the report "has raised doubts" about them, the chairman of the committee said, but considering it to be "a matter of caution," they have decided to withdraw their statement, as well as to collect "legal" reports on the document submitted by Cerdán's wife and "health reports" from other doctors.
The afternoon session of the committee investigating the Koldo case in the Spanish Senate has been suspended after the wife of former PSOE Secretary of Organization Francisca Muñoz, who has refused to testify on health grounds, announced that she will not give explanations.
This was reported by the Chairman of the Board, Eloy Suarez, at the end of the morning session, which was declared this morning by the founder and CEO of Forestalia, Fernando Samper, after which the "health report" of Muñoz was received and the Bureau agreed to suspend his appearance .
Despite this decision, the report "has cast doubt on them, "Suarez said, but considering it to be" a matter of caution, "they have decided to withdraw their statement, as well as to collect" legal "reports on the document submitted by Cerdán's wife and" health reports "from other doctors.
Suarez, however, has not read the document presented by Francisca Muñoz, whose report was dated yesterday and the stamp of a public health centre in Valtierra (Navarre), but has insisted that the contents of the report are "insufficient".
That being the case, he explains that when he has the reports he has requested, the Bureau will act "properly".
Theappearance of in the Senate Committees of Inquiry is mandatory, and today's — on health grounds — is the second time that Muñoz has refused to testify, as he did in December to avoid answering senators' questions.
