A Spanish judge has opened a new line of inquiry into Begoña Gómez, the wife of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, adding charges of prevarication and fraud to the existing investigation. Magistrate Juan Carlos Peinado is leading the probe, which centers on allegations of abuse of power and financial impropriety. The investigation initially focused on potential influence peddling, and now includes scrutiny of alleged fraudulent activities and administrative misconduct. Details regarding the specifics of the alleged prevarication and fraud remain limited. This development marks a significant escalation in the legal challenges facing Gómez and adds further political pressure on Prime Minister Sánchez. The case is ongoing, and Gómez maintains her innocence. No formal charges have been filed at this time.
