Málaga courts for The Malaya corruption case

The Málaga courts are preparing already for the case with the setting up of a new penal section and the employment of more civil servants. The hearing will take place at the new ‘Ciudad de la Justicia’ and so far has 86 accused, bringing with them 100 lawyers. Some 600 witnesses will be called during the duration of the case, which is expected to last for more than a year. The Malaya corruption case is set to see the main hearing open in the Málaga Provincial Court in the spring of next year. The rest of this year will be taken up with the closing of the instruction stage of the case, and magistrates say that any appeals resulting from that should be resolved in six months. Some magistrates have said the case should be heard in the Málaga Congress Hall, given the size of the proceedings, but the Junta de Andalucía has said that the new Justice City currently has 800 square metres not in use, which could see a new large court built in time.
