The Central Operational Unit (UCO) of the Civil Guard has dozens of messages tapped on the phones of those investigated that prove in great detail the constant transfer of money B in the so-called Koldo plot. THE WORLD has had access to the annexes of the latest report presented to the Supreme Court which contain multiple references to the continuous exchange of cash between the former personal advisor of José Luis Ábalos, the former Minister of Transport and his direct environment.
Thus, Koldo García refers in conversations with third parties to “look at how many pages” there are, in clear reference to cash. “Historras?” His interlocutor answers, to which Koldo asks that he wants to know “in total.” Likewise, there are continuous allusions to certain amounts being recorded, for example, “1,800 euros” to the account of “boss B,” Koldo tells his ex-wife.
There are also messages in which Koldo asks for “a purple one”, in reference to a 500 euro bill and explains to his wife that he is going to go to the PSOE headquarters to collect more money. “I’m going to Ferraz to pick up the envelope by car and then they take me home,” he said on another occasion.
It is worth remembering that the UCO concluded in its report that the main defendants used agreed language to refer to cash, constantly referring to “chistorras” to identify the 500 bills in code; “suns” for those of 200; and “lettuces” for those of 100. He also maintains the Judicial Police that Ábalos used the word “folios” to continually ask for cash. During the last few hours, both Koldo and Ábalos have explained that the jokes were real and that the former advisor usually gave courtesy gifts of this type and that the pages were also true because the printer in the ministry’s home used a lot of paper.
