Spanish PM's Wife Banned from Leaving Country Amid Corruption Probe
A Spanish judge has ordered Begoña Gómez, wife of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, to surrender her passport and barred her from leaving the country pending trial on charges of embezzlement, influence peddling, business corruption, and misappropriation of property. Gómez denies all wrongdoing. Sánchez and his Socialist Party dismiss the case as a political smear campaign.
