The former deputy mayor of Malaga, Pedro Román, may soon get out of jail, if he comes up with the million-euro bail stipulated by the Provincial Court last week. Román was Jesus Gil’s right hand man during two terms in Marbella Town Hall. Earlier in the week, the Attorney General had refused to let out Román or Juan Antonio Roca - the alleged mastermind behind Marbella’s Malaya case because of the risk of flight and destruction of evidence. However, the Malaga court took into account the fact that Román had returned voluntarily from Switzerland to face the charges of corruption brought against him. It also said there was little evidence not already in the hands of the police and courts and therefore there was nothing left to destroy. It is the highest bail imposed so far in the Malaya case.
