Pressure on Spanish Prime Minister over corruption

There is mounting pressure on the Spanish Prime Minister to appear in parliament to answer questions over allegations that he and other members of his party received illegal payments.

More than 1,000 people have held a protest in the Spanish capital Madrid, over the alleged corruption in the governing Popular Party.

Mariano Rajoy denies the allegations, contained in documents published by two Spanish newspapers.
