The Criminal Chamber of the Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands (TSJC) has sentenced Judge Salvador Alba to a penalty of 6 and a half years in prison for conspiring against the judge and deputy of Podemos Podemos, Victoria Rosell, as indicated by Europa Press sources of the TSJC.

The sentence, which appreciates crimes of prevarication, bribery and falsehood in an official document and exempts them from prohibited negotiations to public officials and disclosure of secrets, has been notified to the parties on Tuesday.

In addition, and as the digital newspaper Canarias Now advances, Judge Alba has also been sentenced to 18 years of disqualification and to pay a fine of 60,000 euros to Rosell for moral damages. The sentence can be appealed to the Supreme Court.

Judge Alba was accused of giving instructions to the businessman and president of the Las Palmas Sports Union, Miguel Ángel Ramírez, to harm the then deputy of Podemos Victoria Rosell, which he had replaced in his duties, and to start in 2015 a procedure against him. These conversations were recorded by Ramírez and were made public, starting after this performance.
