Diario Libre reports that the case against Spanish businessman Carlos Sanchez in the Malaya/Marbella tax evasion case will be heard on 27 September in Malaga, Spain. Sanchez could face charges of up to 22 years in jail. The newspaper writes that Sanchez Hernandez and his partner Andres Lietor Martinez, both residents in the DR, are accused of misuse of public funds, fraud against the state and asset laundering. They were arrested in 2006, but released on bail and have been living in the DR ever since.
President Leonel Fernandez granted Sanchez Dominican nationality through Decree 187 issued in 2010.
In June, the Dominican Supreme Court of Justice ruled in favor of Carlos Sanchez's right to ownership of a 3.4 million-square meter plot that he purchased in the National Park of the East. At the time, El Dia reported that Carlos Sanchez, who appears as the owner of the Inversiones Trubia company that purchased the land in the National Park of the East, was involved in a EUR4.8 million tax fraud in Spain. Ministry of Environment officials and environmentalists have rejected the Supreme Court decision that is now being appealed.
