A Madrid court has overturned a previous decision to confiscate the passport of Begoña Gómez, wife of Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. The court ruled that the investigation into allegations of influence peddling and misuse of public funds against Gómez can continue, as a jury trial is warranted for two alleged crimes. The initial passport seizure had been widely criticized by Sánchez and his supporters as politically motivated. This decision allows Gómez to travel freely while the investigation proceeds. The case centers around claims she used her position to benefit private companies. While the investigation moves forward, the court’s reversal regarding the passport is a significant development in the ongoing legal battle. The Prime Minister has publicly denounced the case as a smear campaign orchestrated by opponents.
