The Spanish website quotes the party's spokesman Francisco Antonio González as saying that the PP wants to clarify whether the Sport Ministry's handling of the case has been detrimental to third parties and violated their personal rights.

According to hispanidad.com the Partido Popular demands Lissavetzky explain some "obvious irregularities". According to todociclismo this development is due to former Liberty Seguros Director Manolo Saiz's lawsuit against Rafael Blanco, director general of Spain's Upper Sports Council (CSD), in which Saiz accuses him of transmitting to the Spanish cycling federation a falsified document of the Guardia Civil which had not been validated by the judge investigating the affair.

Furthermore todocyclismo reports that the chief investigator in charge of Operation Puerto at the Guardia Civil has been summoned to a court hearing at the end of november. Spanish newspaper "El Mundo" reports the head of the OP investigation to be accused of passing on documents to the CSD differing from that having been presented at court.
