"We are trying to limit the abuse of power, the manipula-tion of cases and the phenomenon of star magistrates... not mentioning any names," said a Socialist member of the cross-party team behind the wide reforms of Spain's legal system announced this week.

Nor did they need to mention names. Anyone in Spain can recognise its star investigating judge, Baltasar Garzon.
