Several leaked audios in the past few days are revealing questionable alleged practices by a former Spanish police inspector –and are putting increasing pressure to the Spanish justice minister.

The website moncloa.com has been leaking conversations between the former police official, José Manuel Villarejo, now in jail, and the current justice minister, Dolores Delgado, when she was prosecutor some nine years ago.

In the latest of them, published on Thursday, Villarejo revealed he had created a prostitution network in order to get information from politicians and businesspeople.

Paying women to have sex with important people

The former police official explained that he had paid money to women for them to have sexual relationships with important men so that the women could tell him what the businessmen and politicians had explained to them during their meetings.

"The important thing is that they explained things to draw the attention of the women," revealed Villarejo in the leaked conversations.

The same website had leaked another excerpt of the conversation on Wednesday in which Delgado admitted that "several Spanish judges and prosecutors ended up with minors" during a trip to Cartagena de Indias, in Colombia.
