A blackmailer organization requires 3 million to not charge Infant Cristina
In the judgment of the case Noos
USPA NEWS -
A judicial investigation aimed at dismantling a structure dedicated to extortion and blackmail in Spain, which has led to prison chairmen of an association of users of banking and union Clean Hands, can overturn the judgment against sister of king Philip VI.
Infant Cristina de Bourbon, sister of King Philip IV of Spain, sits on the dock in the Provincial Court of Palma de Mallorca, as necessary cooperator in the illicit activities of her husband, former international handball player Inaki Urdangarin. Neither the prosecutor nor the tax authorities accuse the infant, sitting on the dock just for the charge against her filed by the union Clean Hands. The lawyer of the Infant, Miguel Roca, denounced an extortion attempt from the union, which would have required the payment of three million Euros for withdrawing the accusation against the King's sister.
It isn't the only complaint. The Spanish Justice investigates long activities of the president of the Association of Users of Banking (Ausbanc), Luis Pineda, and the head of the union Clean Hands. According to the judge, both were part of an organization dedicated to extort and blackmail individuals and entities, who demanded payment of huge sums for "not tarnish his image." A spokesman for a consumer organization, a president of a bank and several individuals have the judge confirmed the existence of such blackmail and even has admitted any bribes paid.
In the case of the sister of King Philip VI, the judge points to Pineda as the head of extortion. For union Clean Hands lawyer, revelations that led to prison Pineda and the leader of the union are "horrible". The lawyer added that, "professional decency" and because the popular accusation represents many people, will continue with the process. However, after confirmation of blackmailing the defense of the Infant, there is a possibility that the union Clean Hands withdraw from the proceedings and, if so, Cristina de Bourbon would be acquitted. Let's wait what happens in the coming days.
