Jack McGill on the run from Spanish police after skipping bail following his arrest with Harrison in October 2006.

Ex-drug dealer Jack McGill’s body was discovered hanged in woodland, it emerged yesterday. McGill, 52, had been on the run from Spanish police after skipping bail following his arrest with Harrison in October 2006. They were accused of attacking two men in Malaga. The uncle spent five months on remand in jail before bail was posted – while his ex-WBO featherweight champ nephew was freed within weeks. McGill’s body was found in Glasgow. Last night a source said: “He felt abandoned by the Harrison camp.” The fighter, 30, who hails from the city, denies assault and will stand trial in Spain in September.

Banesto corruption allegations

Former International Monetary Fund head Rodrigo Rato appeared before a judge Tuesday probing corruption allegations at Spanish bank Banesto whilst he was economy minister, Spanish media said. Rato, his brother Ramon, the head of Santander bank Emilio Botin and 12 others are being investigated in connection with the 1999 purchase by Banesto of 45.3 percent of the Aguas de Fuensanta water utility company from the Rato family.In his one-hour appearance, Rato, who was economy minister in the conservative government at the time, denied wrongdoing and said he was not aware of the details of sale, Spanish media said, quoting lawyers at the hearing.The judge opened his probe following a complaint filed by a Santander and Banesto shareholder.The complaint said Banesto, a subsidiary of the Santander bank, bought the stake in Aguas de Fuensanta from the Rato family even though the water utility was "technically bankrupt" in the hope of "obtaining favours" from the economy minister.Rato stepped down as head of the IMF last year after more than three years in the job.

Three Spanish nationals and ten Moroccans between the ages of 18 and 51, were arrested on Thursday

Police in Spain said Sunday they had smashed a drug trafficking ring with the arrest of 13 mostly Moroccan men in Barcelona and the seizure of narcotics worth 41,000 euros (64,000 dollars), AFP informed.
The 13, three Spanish nationals and ten Moroccans between the ages of 18 and 51, were arrested on Thursday following an investigation that lasted several months, police said in a statement.
"The operation remains open and more detentions have not been ruled out," it said.
Police seized cocaine worth 5,000 euros and hashish worth 36,000 euros, as well as scales and tools to prepare the drugs, and machetes and fake guns during searches of five homes.
Spain, with its extensive southern coastline, is Europe's main entry point for Moroccan hashish and cocaine from South America, mostly from its former colony Colombia, the world's biggest producer of the drug.

Isabel García, the wife of Santiago del Valle, the man accused of the killing of the five year old girl from Huelva, Mari Luz Cortés, suffered a nervous attack while declaring before Instruction Court 1 in Huelva about the case. The extent of her indisposition was such that the hearing had to be suspended.She arrived at Huelva Provincial Court at 4,45pm yesterday evening and was first subjected to a forensic investigation to determine her mental health. When she was then taken before the judge she suffered the attack and an ambulance had to be called, which finally took her shouting and crying to the hospital at the Sevilla – II jail. She has been held in the psychiatric wing of the prison since the start of April, where she is serving an outstanding 15 month prison sentence for failing to report the sexual abuse her husband carried out on their own five year old daughter.
When and how the case continues is now in the hands of the judge.

Back in March, hackers shut down the site of one of Spain’s political parties following an election. The Spanish police began to investigate, and last week announced they’d arrested the culprits, the BBC has reported.
They’ve been accused not only of the Spanish crime, but also with attacking government sites in Asia, Latin America and the US.
Among the fives, who were arrested in Barcelona, Burgos, Malaga and Valencia, were two 16-year-olds.

Police are investigating the death of a 35-year-old woman who was found in a swimming pool


Police are investigating the death of a 35-year-old woman who was found in the swimming pool at the house where she lived in the Arroyo Gragea area of Alhaurin de la Torre. Police initially suspected her husband, from whom she was separated and whom she had reported on several occasions for threatening to kill her, abusing her and telling her to get out of the house, but he was later released. She had also presented complaints against him for such actions as slashing her tyres, taking away her keys and cutting off the water, but he was still allowed access to the plot but forbidden from entering the house.Her body was found when a teacher at her daughter’s school alerted neighbours that the woman had not come to pick up her 13-year-old daughter. Local Police were called and the body, which showed signs of violence, was found in the swimming pool. Guardia Civil officers then took over the case and the woman’s 50-year-old husband was called. He apparently took some time to arrive, although he lives in the same area, saying he had been in Cadiz. Statements were taken from him and his current partner and both were later released.Blood was found at the entrance to the house, where it is believed the woman was first attacked, and on paving stones leading to the swimming pool, some of which may have been used to hit her. The woman’s neck had been wounded and there was severe bruising to her face, although it seems the cause of death was drowning and that she was still alive when she entered the water. The time of death has not yet been confirmed although she was last seen alive at 10am while shopping in the town. There were no signs of forced entry at the house, but the contents of her handbag had been strewn about. Officers believe the murderer did this in an attempt to make the crime look like a robbery.

men on two motorbikes stole 5,000 euros from a man who had just withdrawn the money from a bank in Los Boliches

Four men on two motorbikes stole 5,000 euros from a man who had just withdrawn the money from a bank in Los Boliches, Fuengirola, firing blanks to intimidate him and managing to take the envelope full of money, which they seem to have known he was carrying, from him. They then escaped on the motorbikes, one a white Yamaha scooter which had been stolen from Mijas some days earlier.National Police circulated a bulletin in an attempt to trace the robbers, but with no success. This type of crime is becoming more frequent in the province. One month ago, 20,000 euros were stolen from a woman in Velez Malaga after she was assaulted by robbers who where waiting for her.

Eight suspects detained and a considerable amount of drugs seized was the outcome of a large-scale police operation carried out recently in Olhao

Eight suspects detained and a considerable amount of drugs seized was the outcome of a large-scale police operation carried out recently in Olhao and Faro. Thirty police investigators assisted by a team of the PSP Police Special Forces performed nine house searches and confiscated 6,000 individual doses of cocaine, one firearm, 40 mobile phones and 13,500 euros in cash. According to a police source, the suspects were part of an organised crime gang involved in drug trafficking. The same source said the police investigation, which started in February 2007, was able to fully dismantle the operation. A spokesman said: “This police operation’s objective was not only to dismantle this drug trafficking gang but also to target other criminal activities related to drugs consumption like petty thefts and robberies to villas and apartments.” The eight suspects who were detained are aged between 22 and 45. This police operation followed a similar one which was carried out a few days earlier in the Portimao area. Officers were able to detain 12 suspects and seize 3,800 individual doses of cocaine, 5,800 doses of heroin, as well as 5,300 euros in cash and a considerable amount of stolen jewellery and other goods worth several hundreds of thousands of euros, which the police believe were stolen. In a press release, Faro PSP police said that three house searches were performed in the Bairro do Palacio area, a place where the authorities believe drug-dealing activities were frequently taking place. During the first four months of 2008, the police have already detained 33 suspects in that same area of Portimao.

Sentenced a 46-year-old Portuguese woman, who was found to have almost 500g of cocaine

Sentenced a 46-year-old Portuguese woman, who was found to have almost 500g of cocaine in the home she shared with another woman in La Joya area, to three years in prison for a crime against public health and set a 1,000-euro fine for selling substances that endanger public health. The sentence was reduced due to the woman’s addiction to the substance which she sold out of a broken window to pay for her own habit and which had diminished her mental capacity. In June 2006, National Police found 422.32 grams of the drug in 150 packs of different size and weight, with a pureness of between 27 and 73 per cent, which would have had a value of 490 euros. Police also confiscated methadone tablets, three blades on which traces of the drugs were found, bicarbonate, hiposodic saline solution, a spoon, a mirror and aluminium paper.

Drug arrests came after two boats ran out of fuel and had to wait in the estuary for a third to bring fresh supplies of gasoline


Eleven people have been arrested in connection with the smuggling of 5,100 kilos of hashish.‘Operación Carabela’ began last December and was an investigation into an international network of drugs smugglers bringing hashish into Spain via the Guadalquivir river and then distributing it throughout Europe.
Sometimes the organisation used fishing boats, other time they used speed boats. The arrests came after two boats ran out of fuel and had to wait in the estuary for a third to bring fresh supplies of gasoline. The Guardia Civil began a chase which led to the arrest of seven of the gang members. Three others, including the head of the organisation were subsequently arrested in Los Barrios, Cádiz and another was detained in Punta Umbria, Huelva.Raids on several houses belonging to the detainees resulted in the seizure of drugs and weapons.

Spanish police to gain rights of arrest in the U.K.

Detectives from Europe will be able to carry out investigations and even make arrests on British soil as part of specialist squads designed to combat international crime.Members of the European police force Europol – which includes Britain and France – can now form Joint Investigation Teams using officers from each national force.They will include officers from the Metropolitan Police and the Serious Organised Crime Agency and will target criminal gangs. Previously, European police could travel to this country to share intelligence – but could not make arrests. A spokesman for SOCA said: “This is a new step for Britain. It will help us to combat cross-border crime.”But critics are angry that the decision removes Britain’s veto over any future changes to Europol’s powers. Shadow Home Secretary David Davis said: “This is the latest shocking failure to stand up for the British national interest in Brussels. “Responsibility for policing and security must remain in the hands of national governments.”Further background information on Europol, and the system of Law under which it will operate - Corpus Juris - may be found in this short House of Lords article:
I might say by way of prefacing my remarks and introducing myself, that I am a British citizen, I have been living in Italy for the last 38 years, and have been studying the area of comparative criminal justice and procedure for the last 25 years, having been published in various papers and journals and spoken from various platforms from time to time. My name has been cited in debates in the Houses of Parliament four times, in particular in January 2003 when Nick Hawkins MP read aloud a 6-page briefing paper I had prepared on aspects of Italian criminal procedure, in Standing Committee, debating the European Arrest Warrant. In April 1997 I was invited as a guest of the European Commission to a seminar in Spain where they unveiled the Corpus Juris project for a single system of criminal justice to be enforced throughout the EU; subsequently I contributed written evidence to the HoL Report on Corpus Juris (9th Report, 1998-99, HL Paper 62—pp 117-119).
The evidence I wish to submit to you is as follows—very briefly:
(1) The new Reform treaty will ensure that criminal justice is eventually brought under the decision-making powers of the central authorities of the EU, and JHA will lose its present status as an exclusively national prerogative.
(2) There are two broadly, and profoundly, different families of systems of criminal justice in Europe today—the inquisitorial system, prevalent throughout the continent of Europe, and the adversarial system, which is in use only in the “island jurisdictions” of the UK, Ireland, and Malta.
(3) One problem we have is that little is known about continental systems of criminal justice. It is an area that has hardly ever been studied. There are no university chairs of comparative law that specialise in comparative criminal procedure, anywhere in the British Isles.
(4) The proceedings during the seminar in Spain and an examination of the Corpus Juris proposal, as well as the demands put forward by Commissioner Franco Frattini last year, show clearly that there is a firm determination on the part of the EU’s central bodies to set up a single system of criminal justice for the whole of the EU, based on the Inquisitorial model. A very recent report says that Signor Frattini wishes to start enacting those parts of the Treaty concerning security and justice even before it has been ratified

Two of Spain's respected savings banks, 'La Caixa' in Barcelona and 'Caja Madrid,' were found liable,

A six month trial has led to the conviction of eight people, on charges of fraud and embezzlement in the 'Gescartera' brokerage house, during June 2001. Gescartera was rumbled and lost its licence, when it was discovered that over 100 million euros of some 2,000 clients' money was missing. The collapse caused massive political unrest and the resignations of the Junior Finance Minister and President of Stock market regulator 'CNMV.' Judges passed prison terms of between 3 and 11 years to those concerned, while penalties totalling 88 million euros were ordered to be paid out to investors who lost money, including various churches and charities. Two of Spain's respected savings banks, 'La Caixa' in Barcelona and 'Caja Madrid,' were also found liable, having handled the majority of the fraudulent transactions. Two of their employees were among those convicted. A Parliamentary enquiry overruled any Government responsibility for the operation.
