In Maó, Menorca, a businessman faces trial over €25,890 of goods he allegedly bought from around ten shops without paying. The Balearic Islands Provincial Court is due to hear the case on Tuesday at 09.30. Prosecutors say the purchases, for his cleaning and maintenance company, took place between April and October 2021.

The man used the details of a company he owned with his partner, prosecutors allege. She had not agreed to the purchases. He asked to pay by scheduled bank transfer despite knowing he lacked the funds, according to the prosecution. The transfers never went through, but he kept the goods.

Prosecutors are seeking four and a half years in prison and €6,640 in compensation.
