The Court of First Instance and Instruction number two in Torrox has summoned the Local Police chief, José Roque Fernández, to appear in relation to the crime of forgery, namely the issuing of a certificate with the signature of the former mayor, Teodoro Ruiz (IU), without his permission.
Also summoned to appear is another police officer who, since the original incident, has been serving in a different municipality.
In April 2008, the police chief allegedly sent out a document certifying that the officer had participated as a teacher on a self-defence and gender violence course, which was not true. In addition, the police chief used the official letterhead of the Mayor without permission.
The case is scheduled to be heard on April 28th.
