Prosecutor lashes out against judges who accuse Infanta Cristina without proof

And the media impact

USPA NEWS - Following the arguments of the defense of the Infanta Cristina de Borbon and the other defendants in the trial for the 'case Noos', Wednesday was Anti-Corruption Prosecutor, Pedro Horrach, in charge of presenting its findings. And he did accusing the judge.
Prosecutor Pedro Horrach asked the Court to judge the 'case Noos' by various tax crimes and crimes against public finances, embezzlement of flows and other serious crimes, which abstracts of "parallel trials" and "guesses" that have surrounded the trial, which could be seen for sentencing next Wednesday. Horrach, who asks no convictions for Infanta Cristina de Borbon, accused the judge, Jose Castro, he had mounted a charge against the sister of King Philip VI on the basis suspicions and conjectures, but without any proof.
"One thing is that the judge should be abstracted from it all and quite another to get it," said the prosecutor referring to the judge, who said that instead of asking for clarification, chose to "build a scaffold on suspicion and deep-draft speculation and media applause" to impute the Infanta Cristina de Borbon. The prosecutor considers serious that the judge shared the criticism of the union Clean Hands, which is under suspicion and its imprisoned leader, the Tax Agency. The prosecutor exonerates the Infanta but calls for sentences of between 16 and 19 years in prison for the two main defendants: the husband of the Infanta, Inaki Urdangarin, and this partner, Diego Torres.
