- The judge considers that in the event of Alsasua no aggravating factors such as "discrimination" or "abuse of superiority" should be applied and condemns eight young people to sentences of between 1 and 6 months and 9 years and 6 months in prison. The seven prisoners must remain in prison and the Altsasu Fathers have criticized their decision: "The Supreme's decision has continued injustice and kept our children in jail," he added.
The judge has taken this decision after analysing the appeals filed on 18 September by the magistrates.
The Spanish Audience sentenced Oihan Arnanz to 13 years in prison, 12 to Jokin Unamuno and Adur Ramírez de Alda, 9 to Jon Ander Cob, Julen Goikoetxea and Aratz Urrizola, 6 to Iñaki Abad and 2 to Ainara Urkijo.
Now, the Supreme has resolved the following punishments: 9 years and 6 months in jail for Oihan Arnanz, 8 and a half years for Jokin Unamuno and Adur Ramírez de Alda, 7 and a half years for Jon Ander Cob and Julen Goikoetxea, 4 years and 2 months for Aratz Urrizola, 3 and a half years for Iñaki Abad and 1 year and 6 months for Ainara.
Some of the young people have been in prison for more than 1,000 days, according to the Basque Department of Security.
