Legal dispute over Koldo García's seized funds

Overview

Koldo García, a former ministerial advisor sentenced to 19 years in prison, has filed a complaint with the Audiencia Nacional regarding the management of his seized bank accounts.

García’s defense alleges that BBVA unilaterally reduced the monthly funds available to his ex-wife, Patricia Úriz, from a court-authorized 2,000 euros to 450 euros. The defense also claims the bank disabled her debit card and blocked online access to account statements because the bank requires SMS verification sent to García’s mobile phone, which has been inactive since his incarceration.

The legal team is requesting that Judge Ismael Moreno demand explanations from the bank, provide six months of account statements, and ensure future disbursements adhere to the court-authorized terms.
