Spanish authorities are actively investigating rumors that Iran's regime heavily financed the activities of the country's Podemos political party, according to Spanish media sources.

The Union of Economic and Fiscal Delinquency, La Unidad de Delincuencia Económica y Fiscal (UDEF), an investigative arm of the country's National Police has launched a detailed probe in determining whether the party accepted €5m Euros from Iran in exchange for influence in the country's political and economic arenas, El Confidencial, a Spanish newspaper said.
