Spanish Prime Minister Accused of Profiting From Brothels by Opposition

SPAIN, JUL 9 – Feijóo claims Sánchez benefited from profits linked to family-run prostitution saunas, intensifying political attacks ahead of Spain's 2027 general elections, with personal histories weaponized.

  • On July 9, 2025, Spain's opposition leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo accused Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez in parliament of profiting from brothels linked to Sánchez's father-in-law's past business.
  • Feijóo's allegations emerged amid long-standing tensions and a new investigation revealing a decade-old PP plot to spy on Sánchez and his wife's relatives to damage his career.
  • The opposition's claims focused on family businesses running gay saunas and prostitution, while Sánchez denied wrongdoing, listing PP corruption scandals and announcing an anti-corruption plan on the same day.
  • Sánchez insisted that he has maintained his integrity and has no intention of stepping down, while Justice Minister Félix Bolaños characterized Feijóo's allegations regarding brothels as a deliberate attempt to divert attention from government matters.
  • These events intensified partisan conflict, spurring opposition calls for snap elections and underlining heightened personal attacks within Spain's increasingly polarized political environment.
