Lto Quique Pina’s fight to prove his innocence and return to Cdiz CF has taken a giant step forward after the decision of the head of the Court of Instruction number 5 of the National Court that has agreed to unblock all the companies of the Murcian businessman upon concluding that he has not found any evidence of money laundering. These companies include, mainly, Calambur Intermediations owned by a important package of shares of Cdiz CF through the Crazy About Ball entity.
Judge Santiago Pedraz’s ruling gives a blow to the investigation within the Operation Libero when ruling and considering that there is no indication of money laundering, contrary to what the Prosecutor had indicated at the time that it considered that this entity, in addition to Quique Sport, they could have been used by Pina, supposedly, to commit crimes of tax fraud or property seizure.
When Operation Libero jumped in 2018, the Cdiz CF decided to expel Quique Pina from the Board of Directors and strip him of his positions because it was considered that the seriousness of the accusations deserved his departure so as not to damage the image of the entity. And, precisely, the judge also overturns this argument and decides to expel the Cdiz CF as an accusation in the procedure since it has not been proven that any of the operations carried out by the Pina companies have harmed the entity of which it is a shareholder.
The relatives of the Murcian businessman are also collected and exonerated when it is collected that “no evidence of crime has been found either in the companies or in the participation of Pina’s parents or sister.”Already very advanced in the instruction, it is in a position to dissipate the binding of the indicated entities “, maintains the judge.
