Just do the math to figures presented by the prosecution: 3.5 million in an apartment in Paris (acquisition and improvements) plus foregone income, 2.6 million in business television rights of the Spanish championship, 712,000 to the purchase of three apartments mother, another 1.2 million to his ex-wife, Sofia Fava, 670,000 in cash deliveries. Added to these figures 170,000 euros to promote the book Confidence in the world, more than 200 thousand euros in travel, and other expenses of 87 thousand euros for the driver John Leg and 92,000 for Sandra Santos and José Sócrates, since 2008, will have spent € 8.3 million of Carlos Santos Silva accounts. Loan Santos Silva? Given the way the former prime minister had the money, the prosecutor, the investigating judge and the Court of Appeal of Lisbon say no.
It is due to an apparent ease with which José Sócrates set and had the money the Rosary Teixeira prosecutor concluded that, after all, such financial assets of 23 million euros, formally held by Santos Silva, was in fact of José Sócrates. Incidentally, the statement lodged at the Court of Appeal of Lisbon, which confirmed the arrest of Socrates, the prosecutor said, given the wiretapping, the former prime minister did not ask, demanded money. “Loans” and “good will” by Carlos Santos Silva, claimed the respective defenses (see text in these pages). “Although in life everything is possible, at least in terms of theory and efabulação, were” unbelievers “with afoiteza the naivety of that argument and” altruistic “friendship”, considered, in turn, the judges Augustine Torres and John Carrola, the judgment that Socrates remained in custody. The judges, the report revealed yesterday by the i newspaper, appealed even to a popular saying to describe the lifestyle of the former prime minister: “Who sells goats and goats have not, it comes from somewhere.”
