Spain rules in favor of wrongfully imprisoned Moroccan

The Supreme Court of Spain has ruled to award a compensation of 2.5 million euros to a 75-year-old Moroccan citizen who spent 15 years in prison wrongly accused of rape. It was proven that he was innocent after DNA analysis revealed that the crime was committed by another Spanish individual. The court confirmed that the judicial error was evident due to the neglect of scientific expert reports, following a confusion of the suspects' features in front of the victims. A previous decision denying the compensation was overturned, and responsibility was confirmed to compensate the injured party for the harm suffered.
