The confrontation between José Luis Ábalos and the leadership of the PSOE is increasingly stark. The once all-powerful Minister of Transport between 2018 and 2021 and secretary of organization of the socialists since a year before points to Santos Cerdán, his successor and number two during his time in Ferraz, as responsible for the party revealing his data last week by mistake in which his ID, address in Valencia and email appeared. The former socialist deputy demands in a letter to the ethics and guarantees committee of the PSOE the “opening of a fact-finding file” once morest Cerdán, understanding that he might have incurred a case of “responsibility.” in vigil.” The fact It occurred following Ábalos declined last Tuesday to renounce the act in Congress as demanded by the PSOE due to “political responsibility” following the corruption scandal of the Koldo case, which has shaken the main party of the Government and in which Koldo García, a trusted advisor to the former minister in his four years at the top of Ferraz and the Government, would have played a key role.
“The Federal Organization Secretariat is responsible and in charge of the custody, administration and management of all personal management data files (…) and especially those related to members,” he criticizes in the first of the allegations. which has been presented in the document, which is dated February 29. “Anyone who may fail to comply with the regulations for the protection of personal data for which the party is responsible will be subject to the internal rules of disciplinary responsibility, without prejudice to any civil, criminal or administrative responsibilities incurred as a result.” “Adds Ábalos in the document, advanced by La Sexta and confirmed by this newspaper.
Ábalos highlights that Cerdán was the one who signed the resolution, in which those personal data initially appeared by mistake, with which the PSOE provisionally suspended him from militancy on February 27, following Pedro Sánchez’s former number three on his return to After his victory in the 2017 primaries, Ferraz announced his intention to continue as a deputy in the Mixed Group. The former secretary of the organization highlights that Cerdán “is the person statutorily obliged to ensure the protection of the members’ data, ordering, however, that the press release be disseminated massively, without attending to his obligations regarding protection of such data, actions for which it is directly responsible, whether in cases of fraud, negligence or fault in vigil.” Cerdán was precisely in charge of trying to convince Ábalos to leave the deputy record. “It’s unfair, you’re making a mistake,” the latter reproached him before the PSOE gave him a 24-hour ultimatum last Monday to leave the minutes in the lower house.
“Such actions may mean that the aforementioned Mr. Cerdán has committed a very serious offense” according to the party’s statutes, continues the document presented by Ábalos. For all these reasons, he requests that “a file be opened to investigate the facts in which the eventual responsibility of the secretary of the organization, Mr. Santos Cerdán León, is determined” for the violation of the federal statutes of the PSOE. Ábalos cites in the writing article 47, referring to the protection of personal data, “without prejudice to their administrative, civil and/or criminal responsibility.”
In another letter, in this case addressed to the Organization Secretariat of the PSOE leadership, Ábalos complains that the party conveyed its decision to open a file before the 24-hour period that had been given the day before had expired. transferred to deliver the deputy’s record.
