The Provincial Court of Madrid hosts on Tuesday the trial against a mother and her son for collecting for 20 years 794.93 euros from the pension of a family member despite having knowledge of his death.
The Provincial Prosecutor's Office of Madrid requests 18 months in prison for them and claims 37,250.72 euros for civil liability, since the defendants have already reimbursed 111,544 euros to Social Security.
According to the indictment, M.I.C.M. and V.F.S.C. became aware of the death of their relative on 18 November 1995, a circumstance which they did not communicate to the National Social Security Institute (INSS) or to Banco de Santander, the entity in which the woman received the pension to which she was the holder.
Thus, until the end of November 2015, the date on which the INSS became aware of the facts, the defendants had the amount of the aforementioned pension "that was paid monthly into an account of the Banco de Santander of which the three were co-owners".
With the key of this account both made purchases through the bank card of the deceased woman, had cash and even paid embargoes for public debts of the husband of M. I. C. M.
