Who is Andrea de la Torre, Ábalos' girlfriend who has been detained by the UCO in Valencia in the Koldo case

Andrea de la Torre Maeso has become one of the names after the latest UCO operation related to the Koldo case. The young woman from Malaga was arrested this Thursday during the search of José Luis Ábalos' home in Valencia and, after giving a statement, she was released.

His name had appeared in other information related to the former Minister of Transport, both due to his sentimental connection with him and due to references to his financial situation, collected in police investigations.

This is Andrea de la Torre

Born in Fuengirola (Málaga) in 1998, she is currently 28 years old. His academic and professional profile is mainly related to the administrative field and business management. He has studied Administrative Management and Law. Later, he focused his career on internal organization, administration and human resources.

One of the episodes in his professional career that has attracted the most attention is his time at Logirail, a subsidiary of Renfe. Andrea worked there between June 2022 and August 2024, in an HR-related department.

His relationship with Ábalos dates back to the end of 2020. At that time, the former minister still held the Transport portfolio. The couple kept their relationship away from the spotlight. However, their link began to appear in the information about the Koldo case when investigators analyzed the communications between Ábalos and his former advisor.
