Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s wife, Begona Gómez, has been ordered by Judge Juan Carlos Peinado to stand trial by jury on corruption charges, with the court demanding she hand in her passport and appear twice a month. No trial date has yet been set.
For two years now, she has been the target of a political and judicial witch hunt. Today's development is just the latest escalation.
Today is a disastrous day for all of us who believe in justice.
Now we see how the government attacks judges, prosecutors and the media while attempting to silence opposition parties.
Lawmakers and the architects of our constitution could never have imagined that the threats to our democracy could originate from the Spanish government itself.
