Palma court drops Princess Cristina from the list of suspects

The provincial High Court of Palma de Mallorca has decided to remove Princess Cristina from the list of official suspects in the investigation probing the business dealings of her husband, Iñaki Urdangarin and his partner Diego Torres. 

Urdangarin, the Duke of Palma, stands accused of siphoning off millions of euros of public money through Nóos to private companies by over-invoicing for sports and tourism events in the Balearics and Valencia regions.

The two magistrates that voted to suspend the princess’s summons asked the judge to formulate more solid evidence of a possible financial crime.
