One person told 20minutos that part of the town thinks that the judiciary is giving in by letting Roca out of prison on bail.
The slogan for the demonstration was ‘Marbella indignada, justicia ya’ – Indignant Marbella, Justice Now.Some 2,000 local residents of Marbella took to the streets last night in demand that Juan Antonio Roca leave the town and lose his assets here. They are planning to ask the instruction judge in the Malaya case, Óscar Pérez, for a distancing order from the town, considering that ex real estate assessor has ill-treated the municipality.
Placards carried by the demonstrators also mentioned the ex Deputy Mayor of the town Pedro Román, who was also described as a ‘persona non grata’. They also made calls for Roca to be kept in prison until the Malaya case comes to court – it’s expected to get underway at the end of next year in Málaga.
