Insufficient evidence: man acquitted of drug trafficking in Ourense
The Provincial Court of Ourense has acquitted a man accused of drug trafficking for lack of evidence, according to cadenaser.com. The court examined the established facts, including the discovery in a residence of cocaine, heroin, cash and implements intended for the sale of narcotics.
However, the court concluded that these elements were insufficient to attribute to the suspect direct participation in the distribution of the substances. The evidence also did not conclusively prove that the accused had fled or conducted transactions related to drugs.
The ruling acquits the defendant of the imputed offence. The sentence is not final and may be appealed to the Superior Court of Justice of Galicia (TSXG).
