RESIDENTS HIGHTLIGHT POLITICAL CORRUPTION

Listen to this article

Not without controversy in San Bartolomé, residents of the small Orihuela hamlet have decided to make public their feelings on the main corruption cases currently being processed through the courts and involving Spain’s politicians.

The novel way they are making their feelings heard is by highlighting the names involved on a town centre street. The cases they decided to concentrate on are those involving Gürtel and Brugal which have now been ongoing for some considerable time.
