The Court of Instruction No. 2 of Vitoria-Gasteiz has admitted the complaint of ESK about alleged leaks in neurosurgery and clinical neurophysiology after his arrest. The imputed ones are José Antonio Elexpuru, head of the Neurosurgery Service of the Hospital de Basurto, and Eduvigis Álvarez, chief physician of the Neurophysiology Area of OSI Araba.

The ESK trade union has asked the Health Advisor, Nekane Murga, to "maintain the judgment and abandon these two objections cautiously", as have 11 others investigated by Judge Zulueta. In a communiqué, Osakidetza stated that it will do so "if the judicial decision is confirmed" that has been taken in the Basque Parliament.
