The Attorney General of Spain – Álvaro García Ortiz – has been ordered to stand trial for an alleged breach of confidentiality concerning leaked emails.
A judge at the Supreme Court denied suspending him from his duties but has imposed a bail of one hundred and fifty thousand euros.
Mr. Ortiz is accused of leaking sensitive emails relating to political opponents.
The government has maintained its support for Ortiz, stating they have confidence in his innocence amidst the accusations.
