The former minister Fátima Báñez was traveling on one of the trains involved in an accident this Tuesday in Urda (Toledo) and has still not been located.
According to what sources close to the former minister have confirmed to DEMÓCRATA, Báñez was traveling on the derailed Iryo train shortly before 9:00 a.m. this Wednesday.
Báñez was Minister of Employment and Social Security during the two governments of Mariano Rajoy, between December 2011 and June 2018. After the motion of no confidence that made Pedro Sánchez president, she left politics and began to develop her business activity.
In December 2019 she joined the Board of Directors of Laboratorios Rovi as an independent external director, and in April 2020 she joined the board of trustees of the Fundación CEOE, which she chairs.
