A MAN accused of child abuse has told a court he has no memory of the alleged crimes.
A 40-year-old man is in court for ten charges of sexual abuse against minors and eight charges of exhibitionism and sexual provocation against a total of 20 victims.
The prosecution for the case has requested that the man is jailed for 136 years but the accused has repeatedly said that he doesn’t “remember half of it” and that he doesn’t know if he has had sexual contact with underage children.
It is alleged that the man, named only as Antonio P, asked boys between the ages of 13 and 15 in the Valencia region for sexually explicit photographs and sexual encounters in exchange for money or gifts.
The crimes were allegedly committed between April 2016 and March 2017 and the man was eventually arrested by the National Police on November 27 2017.
The trial continues.
