The judge presiding over Barcelona's Investigating Court number 1, Joaquín Aguirre, has formally charged Ana Paula Rufas López, wife of José María Enríquez Negreira, with money laundering and extended the investigation by an additional six months, according to legal sources confirmed by laSexta.

This decision follows a Civil Guard report submitted to the court in early August, which revealed that approximately three million euros had flowed through Rufas' accounts over the past 20 years.

According to the report, accessed by laSexta, Rufas received a salary totaling 151,014.24 euros between 2011 and 2018 from Nilsad SCP and Dasnil 95 SL. However, this amount is significantly less than the nearly three million euros (2,977,557.51 euros) deposited into accounts she controls, leaving 2,826,543.27 euros of "supposedly unjustified" income.

The report also notes ongoing efforts to trace the origin of these funds, which are currently deemed "apparently unjustified" based on income, work, and investment returns.

In its nearly 170 pages, the Civil Guard report highlights that it has not been proven that payments made by FC Barcelona to companies owned by José María Enríquez Negreira and Javier Enríquez Romero between 2001 and 2018 were for "alleged 'consulting' in arbitration matters." Additionally, Barça failed to demonstrate to tax authorities the actual services provided by Nilsad and Dasnil.

The report further states that the "final destination" of the alleged reports, produced between 2014 and 2018, has not been verified, nor has their use by any department of the club, including the technical staff.
