Spain's Justice Minister Félix Bolaños is under investigation for alleged embezzlement and perjury related to the hiring of an advisor to Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez's wife, Begoña Gómez. Judge Juan Carlos Peinado is leading the inquiry but cannot investigate Bolaños directly due to his government position. Bolaños previously testified that he did not arrange the advisor's appointment, which is now under scrutiny. The investigation follows corruption allegations affecting the PSOE government, including the resignation of Santos Cerdán over bribery claims.
