Antón Iglesias testifies in Cangas cyberattack investigation

Antón Iglesias, the Councillor for Urbanism and Environment for the Cangas City Council, has appeared to testify as an investigated party before the Plaza Nº2 Court of Cangas. This follows the dismissal of an appeal filed by Iglesias against a judicial order summoning him to testify.

The investigation pertains to a cyberattack targeting the Cangas City Council on May 19, 2023. The court rejected the legal argument that the summons was untimely, ruling that the judicial investigation is permitted to undergo successive extensions to ensure a satisfactory conclusion. The court noted that the investigation period has been extended through various judicial orders to facilitate the necessary proceedings.
