The former judge Luis Sáenz de Tejada, investigated in the 'Leire Díez case', claims that it is false that he followed the judge of Badajoz Beatriz Biedma —the magistrate who investigated David Sánchez, brother of the President of the Government— by car after her statement as a victim in the National Court, alleging that at that moment he was "450 kilometers away".
In a document accessed by Europa Press, the accused explains that on October 8, at the time when the reported events took place, he was in Uceda (Guadalajara).
"It is evident that I could not reach the place indicated in the complaint," Sáenz de Tejada states, who maintains that he remained "the whole day" in that municipality: "I was 450 kilometers away, with three witnesses and being geolocated".
The former judge recounts that he spent the entire day at his sister's house, located "about 4 and a half hours from the place indicated by Biedma to the National Police".
He also adds that on that same day he recorded a video in a room of his sister's house and that all his mobile phones and his laptop "can be geolocated at that place" during that date.
Sáenz de Tejada argues that with this document he "proves" the "uncertainty" of the complaint made by the judge of Badajoz, to whom he reproaches for deciding to report "the alleged serious and intimidating events five days after they occurred".
Likewise, he emphasizes that "the supposed identification is made by his underage daughter" and that, "with the complainant in the car, neither she nor any companion could collect the license plate or any data of the car, nor identify anyone despite being parallel".
According to the complaint filed by Biedma with the Superior Police Headquarters of the National Police of Extremadura, the events would have occurred around 7:15 p.m. on October 8, the same day she testified as a victim before the magistrate Santiago Pedraz.
In her account, the judge explains that she was driving back to her home in Badajoz from the Talavera de la Real airport, accompanied by her daughters, when one of them warned her that "a white car", unable to specify the license plate, had positioned itself parallel to her vehicle.
The vehicle, according to the complaint, "was occupied by Sáenz de Tejada" and the magistrate stated to the Police that "she does not know how that person could have had knowledge" that "he was going to make that trip at that moment," which makes her fear that "they could have placed some type of locator or GPS device in his vehicle."
