The Mayor of Torrox, Axarquia (where there are now thousands of illegal houses) is on trail for the usual stuff, bribery and corruption, signing licences for non-urbanised land etc. According to the news 10 foreigners are also accused, probably Brits?
Además, fueron acusadas otras 15 personas, sobre todo los particulares que solicitaron las licencias, la mayoría de ellos extranjeros
Are the people who finished up with illegal houses not only faced with demolition but also criminal charges 😯 Remember from around 2002 when it was popular estate agents spiel telling naïve Brits just to pass a brown envelope and they would get a licence or build and pay a fine as that’s what all the Spaniards did!
