The National Court has summoned commissioner José Manuel Villarejo and his partner Rafael Redondo for next Monday for the appearance provided for in article 505.2 of the Criminal Procedure Law on precautionary measures.

In an order, the Chamber, which has sentenced the Tándem case, adopts this decision at the request of the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office and summons Villarejo and Redondo at 10 a.m. to appear accompanied by their lawyers. This first sentence is not yet final, but the high jail sentences imposed by Villarejo and Redondo could lead to the immediate imprisonment of both.

Last Monday, the court sentenced the retired commissioner to 19 years in prison and his partner to 13 years in the first hearing of this procedure in which the pieces Iron, Land and Pintor were prosecuted.

Villarejo was convicted of revealing company secrets in the Iron room and private secrets in the Land room, as well as for falsifying a commercial document, while he was acquitted of bribery in both cases and of extortion to the degree of conspiracy in the room Painter.

The Fourth Section of the Criminal Chamber issued a sentence last Monday in the first three pieces that have been tried in the so-called Tandem case, in which the hiring of the Villarejo company, Cenyt, has been investigated to carry out certain orders.
