A Spanish court has ordered Begoña Gómez, wife of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, to stand trial in a corruption case and imposed a travel ban preventing her from leaving the country. The decision follows a two-year investigation into allegations of embezzlement, influence peddling, business corruption, and misuse of funds. Judge Juan Carlos Peinado instructed Gómez to surrender her passport and appear in court twice a month until the trial begins before a jury. Gómez, 55, has denied all charges.
The case originated from a complaint filed by the far-right-linked group Manos Limpias (Clean Hands). Prime Minister Sánchez has repeatedly dismissed the case as baseless and politically motivated, accusing opponents and parts of the judiciary of targeting his family. Following the court order, the Socialist Party posted on social media that Gómez has been subjected to judicial and political persecution for two years.
The ruling comes amid several ongoing corruption investigations involving Sánchez’s relatives and former allies, posing potential risks to his government’s stability.
