A Romanian citizen was sentenced to two years in prison for theft from a restaurant in Ocaña, Spain, where he stole 120 euros and three bottles of alcohol. The Provincial Court upheld the sentence, rejecting the defendant's appeal, who contested the initial ruling made by the Criminal Court Number 1 in Toledo. The events took place on the night of March 2, 2023, when the man forced the restaurant's door and entered the premises.
Although he claimed that there was no evidence of the door being forced, the court found the evidence presented sufficient, including the testimony of a police officer and the statement of the owner. The sentence was justified by the defendant's criminal record and the circumstances of the crime. The ruling is not final, and the convicted person can appeal to the Supreme Court.
