Despite Isea's fears, Fuentes Gago's promises of a new life, anonymity & protection for his family convinced him to confirm the €7.1M payment.
However, #Spanish newspaper @abc_es published his statement with his full name and then the case was dropped.

The Patriotic Police of the #Spanish State's Cesspit

Naive to believe a secret unit using illegal methods would only act against #Catalan pro-indy parties & leaders. #Villarejo & co's activities undermine the foundations of democracy @joseantich
