The Guardia Civil’s Central Operative Unit (UCO) determined that a network connected to the PSOE, overseen by Santos Cerdán and Leire Díez, had been structured to safeguard the interests of the party, the government, and President Pedro Sánchez. As outlined in the case summary reviewed by National Court Judge Santiago Pedraz, the group referred to as the Ferraz cloacas sought to undermine judicial proceedings that threatened the political organization.
Actions Designed to Protect the PSOE and Its Network
Investigators revealed that this organization operated with a “level of strategic coordination” to discredit judicial proceedings and institutions that could affect the PSOE or members of the executive branch. According to the report, the network not only sought to block these legal actions but also worked to directly protect President Pedro Sánchez.

Link to the SEPI Controversy
Beyond the judicial actions, investigations revealed suspected tampering with public contracts overseen by the State Industrial Participation Company (SEPI), and reports indicate that the network siphoned off as much as €731,545 through unlawful schemes between 2021 and 2023. Among the most striking cases was the 2021 rescue of Tubos Reunidos, which included a €113 million public injection and produced substantial commissions that were subsequently routed through shell companies.
Judicial and Political Implications
Judge Pedraz continues to oversee the investigation, while the legal ramifications of these activities are being analyzed. The case has created a significant impact on Spain’s political landscape, raising questions about the transparency within the PSOE and placing key figures under judicial scrutiny.
The network not only questions the safeguards employed in Ferraz but also heightens worries about the integrity of Spain’s judicial procedures and how they might be influenced by senior political actors.
