13 people have been arrested by National Police in Málaga for fraud,

Monday 26 April 2010

13 people have been arrested by National Police in Málaga for fraud, in connection with a premium rate esoteric phone line operation. Police say the accused tried to keep callers on the phone for as long as possible.Most of those arrested are women, and are accused of telling the callers that the longer they stayed on the line, the higher the chance that the esoteric rituals being carried out on their behalf would be successful. Police say some of the victims, who were mostly elderly, left their phones connected to the line overnight, leading to astronomic bills.


José Tomás, is said to be stable after a very serious goring in the Feria de San Marcos

Spanish bullfighter, José Tomás, is said to be stable after a very serious goring in the Feria de San Marcos in Mexico. He was caught by the fifth bull from the De Santiago stud.

The matador underwent a three and a half hour operation and is now in the intensive care unit of the Hidalgo Hospital, after being gored three times as much as 15 cms deep by the bull ‘Navegante’. The stream of blood which led from the ring to the surgery at the bullring was described as frightening, and immediately the PA system called for members of the public to donate blood. One report says the bullfighter was given eight litres of blood.
Doctors report that surgery went well, that the bullfighter was stable and that his life was not threatened.


several prison workers could have had sex with the inmates in exchange for favours.

Spanish Prisons Authority, Instituciones Penitenciarias, dependent on the Ministry for the Interior, has removed the management of the Meco women’s prison in Madrid, after detecting ‘inacceptable behaviour’.José Luis Cuevas, the Director, along with Bonifacio A, the Sub-Director and Juan R. The Administrator, are all going in the clean out and a full investigation is underway following accusations that several prison workers could have had sex with the inmates in exchange for favours.20minutos.es reports that the prison workers slept with the women prisoners in exchange for drugs and for allowing the prisoners access to a mobile phone.614 women are currently being held in El Meco, and reports indicate that 14 workers are under investigation.
Later on Friday the Deputy Prime Minister, María Teresa Fernández de la Vega, called on the prosecutor to investigate the 'irregularities'.El Mundo reports that the prison officers have blamed the Equality Law for what has happened. Before 2007 they had not contact with the prisoners, but since then the prisoners have to help them with their work.Meanwhile in a separate incident five policewomen on practice duty at the Santander main police station have denounced their instructor for looking at them in a lascivious and sexual way. The case is now in the hands of the Duty Judge in Santander. A police spokesperson declined to comment.



no definite sighting of 'Seanie' in his usual Spanish bolthole

Tuesday 6 April 2010


Irish taxpayers were told that they would be paying for the rest of their lives because of the €30bn Nama buyout, disgraced banker Sean FitzPatrick was holidaying abroad.But while there were people who swear he is in one of the world's top golf resorts on the Costa Del Sol, there was no definite sighting of 'Seanie' in his usual Spanish bolthole.In the good times and more recently in times of trouble, the former boss of Anglo Irish Bank has headed for the luxurious sanctuary of the Real Club de Golf Las Brisas Spanish golf and country club.Mr FitzPatrick became a member of the exclusive club in Marbella several years ago, when joining fees were close to €100,000.Unconfirmed reports from staff working in the restaurant suggested that Mr FitzPatrick dined out with friends in the club restaurant on Thursday night -- just as the full horror of the impact of the crisis on present and future generations was becoming clear.The club is one of Mr FitzPatrick's favourite haunts on the sunshine coast. The restaurant boasts a five-star menu of lobster and prawn salad hors d'oeuvres garnished with pine-nut vinaigrette and apple chutney, for €22. For those with heartier appetites, there is beef Wellington, with mushrooms, truffle and puff pastry, at €22.Mr FitzPatrick is understood to have holidayed at the Hotel de Las Golf resort, where apartments cost up to €1m at the peak of the boom.Neighbours of Mr FitzPatrick at the resort said that since his role in the collapse of Anglo Irish became clear, 'Seanie' had been attempting to keep a low profile, driving around in a second-hand, Dublin-registered car and staying at the club, where he still has a tight-knit circle of friends and golfing buddies.
