Duro reproche de Bolaños al Poder Judicial por no sancionar a Peinado: le acusa de “corporativismo” y de dañar la reputación de la Justicia

En un escrito al CGPJ, el ministro anuncia que llevará al instructor del ‘caso Begoña’ al Supremo después de que no se le haya impuesto ninguna medida disciplinaria

Duro reproche de Bolaños al Poder Judicial por no sancionar a Peinado: le acusa de “corporativismo” y de dañar la reputación de la Justicia

Minister of Presidency, Justice, and Relations with the Courts, Félix Bolaños, remains steadfast in his resolve to ensure that the actions of judge Juan Carlos Peinado are duly sanctioned. On March 2025, Bolaños submitted a series of grievances against Peinado to the General Council of the Judicial Power (CGPJ), the body responsible for disciplining judges.

These complaints ranged from Peinado's controversial questioning during his dismissal proceedings to Bolaños' rejected impeachment attempt, limitations on the Prosecutor's role in the case, and the unauthorized release of documents to the press before notifying the involved parties. After 427 days of presenting his grievances, Bolaños decided not to sanction Peinado in his latest disciplinary action, as he believed it was part of the judicial process.

The Justice Minister has now filed his final appeal, accusing the Judicial Power of "corporatism" and being "incapable" of restoring the "reputation" of the judicial body. He has announced his intention to take the matter to the Supreme Court.
