The Supreme Court (TS) issued a final ruling in the De Miguel case yesterday, which is why legal action for compliance begins with this ruling.
In legal terms, the Supreme Court will officially announce the verdict to both the parties and the court Provincial Court of Alava. This court of first instance is responsible for issuing the imprisonment order of the main convicts (those with sentences of more than two years and no criminal record).
Among them would be those considered responsible for the corrupt plot, the members of the executive branch of the PNV of Álava, Alfredo de Miguel, Koldo Ochandiano and Aitor Telleria. Charged with unauthorized intercourse, passive bribery, cheating and embezzlement, their sentences rise to 12 years and 4 months, 7 years and 6 months and 5 years and 1 month respectively. The former Director of Youth of the Basque Government, Xabier Sanchez Robleswould also be in this group, as he is punished with 7 years and 1 month in prison.
The Most High established one maximum effective prison sentence for the convicts, so the one who was ‘number two’ of the PNV in Álava will have to serve 9 years in prison, while for Koldo Ochandiano it will be 6 years and 9 months of effective compliance. In the end, Aitor Telleria will be sentenced to a total of 5 years, 1 month and 15 days in prison.
cultural entrepreneurs Inaki San Juan and Josu Azkarraga They also have more than two years in prison (they have been sentenced to more than 4 years). The rest of the convicts will not be imprisoned.
Although the verdict of the Supreme Court is firm (the facts are considered proven), the convicted person can have a protection order before the Constitutional Court, because their rights have been violated. The defense has not yet clarified whether they will go to the Constitutional Court, and it is not known how a possible appeal could affect their entry into prison. Exhausted in this way, the convicts could also go to the Strasbourg court.
