The PP hopes that the sentence of the TS that condemns Griñán "is fulfilled" and the Government does not consider a pardon

MADRID, 14 Sep. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The general secretary of the PP and spokesperson for the Popular Group in Congress, Cuca Gamarra, has assured that her party hopes that, once the Supreme Court has confirmed the conviction of the former president of the Junta de Andalucía José Antonio Griñán, that sentence "will be complies" and the Government of Pedro Sánchez does not consider a pardon.

This has been pronounced after the Supreme Court has confirmed the conviction of Griñán and Manuel Chaves for the irregular use of regional subsidies for the Employment Regulation Files (ERE). The high court considers that Griñán was "aware of the illegality" of the criterion that was followed with the ERE while highlighting his "passivity" in the face of the "waste and arbitrariness" with which the aid was granted.

Shortly after learning of the 1,205-page sentence, whose ruling had been advanced on July 26, Gamarra stressed that the "convictions" of the "biggest case of corruption in the history of Spain" are confirmed, where "two presidents are sentenced of the Socialist Party".

"Once the sentence is known and therefore the sentence leaves no room for doubt, what it takes is for the sentence to be carried out and not for the Government to consider a pardon now," Gamarra said in statements to journalists in the halls of Congress.
