Interior leaves the position of Judicial Police Commissioner vacant, which will be decided by the new Government

The position of Commissioner of Judicial Police is now vacant following the retirement of Luis Fernando Pascual, who received a warm farewell. The Ministry of Interior will not fill this sensitive role until after the upcoming elections on November 29. Pascual's tenure, which began in January 2024, was marked by his focus on various judicial investigations, including those involving former Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero. The new government will also need to appoint a new Deputy Director General of Logistics and Innovation, as the current commissioner will retire soon. Depending on the election outcome, significant changes in the police leadership may occur.
