Blame others. That is exactly what the construction company OHL did during the investigation that the Tribunal de Cuentas is carrying out about the overpayments that it received when building the AVE train route to Barcelona. Juan Miguel Villar Mir has not beat around the bush, stating clearly that the issue resulted from the project that Public Works granted to Adif despite his warnings.
Still, this argument will boomerang against the company, because it chose to participate in the public bid process, agree to the terms and set a price. As a result, OHL takes a hit to its credibility just when it was starting to make bids for more domestic and international construction projects.
