It’s a case that has rocked the Canary Islands, "we are facing disgusting facts," the prosecutor Pedro Gimeno explicitly detailed when describing the accusation made against a 67-year-old taxi driver for, allegedly, having sexually abused his five young grandchildren. The representative of the Public Ministry yesterday, on the last day of the trial in Las Palmas, maintained his request for 34 years in prison, 50 years probation, and 55 years prohibition of any profession or trade that involves direct contact with minors for the accused.
In his report, Gimeno stated that, despite the fact that the accused denied the facts, if there had been a single victim, there could have been some grounds for possible lying, but in this case "it is five of his grandchildren who have too many similarities in their testimonies, that even taking different situations into account, they coincide in the way he approached them, offering them sweets and gifts to win the affection of the children and then abuse them sexually."
