Raúl Ríos, one of the detainees in the case of the kidnap and subsequent murder at Christmas of sixteen month old Mirian Cuerda in Abrucena should already have been in prison after being convicted for abusing a minor and sentenced to two years and five months in prison.
He was convicted in 2010 but the sentence had not yet been executed. Police are also investigating the possibility that the child was originally kidnapped for the purpose of being sold for €50,000.
