loses out A FTER a year of reviewing the 54 appeals brought by the defence and prosecution in the Malaya Case, the judges of the Second Cham-
ber of the Supreme Court have raised the sentence for the main accused, Juan Antonio Roca (pictured below) from 11 to 17 years in prison. The High Court has
also imposed a new tax offense on Roca, the former adviser of Urbanism and mastermind of the plot, adding a further two years in prison, and has raised his bribery sentence from two to three and a half years and his money laundering sentence from five to seven years.
LUCKY The last mayor, Marisol Yagüe, has been luckier and has seen her sentence reduced from six years to five and a half years in prison, as has Isabel García Marcos, whose sentence was reduced from four to three and a half years. The most striking aspect of the judgment is that the Criminal Division of the High Court has annulled the decision of the Provincial Court of Malaga who confiscated property and fines to pay the debts generated to the city of Marbella and has ordered that such amounts are to be awarded to the State.

OLICE are investigating whether the mother who recently abandoned her baby in a Madrid bin dumped another child two years ago. As featured in our last edition a baby was discovered hidden in a backpack in an underground rubbish container near Madrid on July 15th. At a press conference Madrid officials said that they discovered the mothers origins from a baby bottle found with the infant. The bottle had been issued by the Alcalá de Henares hospital and officers were able to search through a list of women who had recently given birth there and matched the baby’s blood type, A positive, to a birth on June 30th. The mother was then identified as Catalina A.M aged 37 and she was subsequently arrested on July 16th. In prison she confessed that in February 2013 she had a fourth child, a daughter, and had handed her to a
couple just outside the hospital whom she did not know. Now police are investigating what has happened to the little girl. According to investigations, the little girl was born without any problems at the Hospital del Henares Coslada in February 2013. The mother spent three days in hospital and was discharged. According to the Civil Guard, the woman did not register the child’s birth and after extensive searches no health records can be found. When questioned, the father stated he knew nothing of a pregnancy and the subsequent birth. He explained that his wife suffers from an ailment and knee problems and was not surprised when she asked to be taken to hospital. The mother maintains she did not dump this child. Instead, she says, upon leaving the hospital with her new-born daughter she stopped in a park of Mejorada and

Our cover story from issue 3 gave the child to two individuals in their 30s, who she did not know, telling them they could keep it and asked them to look after the child. She added that she doesn’t know who these people were. A judge will now question the parents individually to see who is telling the truth however all evidence points to the mother telling the truth.
THE BIN BABY UPDATE: Marco, named by hospital workers, has now been welcomed by a foster family while his mother is facing charges of attempted murder.
