The second section of the Provincial Court of A Coruña will hold the trial on Tuesday against a man accused of defrauding two women.
Specifically, in one case, the Prosecutor’s Office specifies that he made the victim believe that he wanted to have a relationship with her and start a family, as stated in his qualification document, in which he requests four years and six months in prison for the accused, for a continuous crime of fraud.
The Prosecutor’s Office maintains that, “with the aim of obtaining illicit enrichment,” he convinced both of them, with salaries of 900 and 800 euro, to give him money and buy items from him “with the promise that he would return them, although he had no intention to fulfil it.”
In one case, in 2017, he managed to get one of them to request the registration of four lines and acquire four mobile phones, assuring her that she would take charge of them and that the lines would pass into her name. The woman also bought him a computer and gave him different amounts, one of them 8,000 euro.
“To convince her, he told her that he had a cleaning company, that he had debts and that he needed the telephones for work”, he also told her that he was going to collect compensation for an accident, that when he received it, he would return everything.
In January 2018 he met another woman, “whom he made believe that he intended to maintain a serious and stable relationship and that he wanted to start a family with her and her son.” “He also told her that she had taken over a family business with financial problems, that he needed money for mobile phones and a computer, which he would allocate to that company, and that he would return it to her within a month.”
“Likewise, he made her believe that he would hire her in the company, however, it was all a farce by the accused with the sole purpose of taking advantage,” emphasises the Prosecutor, which assures that the woman acquired several mobile phones, a computer or a bicycle. As in the previous case, he also asked for loans. In both this case and the other, the accused, the Prosecutor’s Office states, only returned 300 euro to them, but so that they could continue “buying things.”
