Barcelona politics is back in focus as the Partido Popular plans to summon Salvador Illa, now President of the Generalitat, to the Spanish Senate’s Koldo case investigation commission for a second time.
ElDiario.es first reported the decision. Later, sources in the PP leadership confirmed it to the Catalan News Agency (ACN). Illa’s first appearance before the commission was on 24 April 2024, when he was the Socialists’ Party of Catalonia (PSC) candidate for the Catalan elections.
The Koldo case is being examined by a Senate commission in Spain’s upper house. The inquiry is looking into allegations linked to the case, and Illa’s return to the hearing adds another layer to an already tense political row.
For readers following Catalan politics, the timing matters. Illa is now the highest political authority in Catalonia, so any new summons carries weight in Barcelona and across the region. It also keeps pressure on relations between the PP and the PSC.
