Moaña Couple Pleads Guilty to Home Invasion, Gets Four-Month Term and Is Released

Community vigilance continues after their release.

Overview

  • A judge issued a plea-bargained sentencia de conformidad after the pair accepted the Ministerio Fiscal’s accusation for allanamiento de morada.
  • Each received a four-month prison sentence and must cover civil damages for a broken window, a damaged bathtub, and the use of bedding and towels.
  • The Guardia Civil detained them Sunday after they entered an inhabited home in A Moureira, with the owner alerting authorities upon returning.
  • Following the Monday hearing they were released and spent the night at a relative’s home in Meira while pursuing housing through municipal social services.
