Costa was speaking yesterday about the case against Tolo Cursach and also about allegations in respect of the tourism director Pilar Carbonell and the director of the Balearic Tourism Agency, Pere Muñoz. Carbonell's telephone conversation with Tolo Sbert of the Cursach Group has been highlighted in the judge's summary. Costa said that no specific accusation has been made about Carbonell.
The tourism ministry, when it was made aware in August of officials being implicated or called as witnesses in the Cursach case, started an internal investigation and forwarded relevant documentation to the court last month.
The government spokesperson explained that as yet no investigations have been opened by a judge into the case of Pere Muñoz, the ex-transparency minister Ruth Mateu and the one-time campaign manager for Més, Jaume Garau. They are all implicated by the anti-corruption prosecution service, along with two former officials from the transparency ministry. Charges could be for an abuse of power and a trafficking of influence in respect of contracts awarded to Garau.
The government, Costa added, will assess the situation if investigations are opened.
