  "account": "Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of the Popular Party (PP), firmly denies allegations that his party offered payments to Koldo García in exchange for damaging statements about Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. In an interview with the program En boca de todos on Cuatro, Feijóo stated categorically that \"it is absolutely false.\" The leader of the PP reacted to a report by Cadena SER on Thursday, which revealed an audio tape of García, a former advisor to ex-minister José Luis Ábalos.\n\nOn the audio, García claimed he made a deal with Alberto Durán, a lawyer for the Popular Party, to pay his legal expenses and receive a million euros in exchange for providing information that would help bring down Pedro Sánchez. When asked about the supposed offer from Durán, García recounted how the lawyer presented a plea bargain, stating that avoiding jail was a significant benefit.\n\nFeijóo categorically dismissed the allegations, asserting in Durán's name and on behalf of the PP, \"no euro was offered to anyone.\"",
