The future in freedom of the former president of the Junta, José Antonio Griñán, is in the hands of the Institute of Legal Medicine, which must assess whether the medical treatment against cancer that the veteran socialist leader has been prescribed is compatible with his imprisonment. The First Section of the Provincial Court of Seville has asked the institution for a report on whether it can make medical guidelines compatible with a stay in a prison. In an order signed last Tuesday, it specifies that, once the radiotherapy sessions are finished, the medical plan sent by his lawyer consists only of “pharmacological treatment and rehabilitative exercises.”
On March 21, the judges required the defense of Griñán, sentenced to six years in prison for embezzlement in the political piece of the ERE, to report when he was going to finish his radiotherapy treatment for the prostate cancer that he was diagnosed with. at the end of last year, shortly before the Seville Court ordered the entry into prison of the eight former high officials on whom prison sentences weighed. On January 13, 2023, the magistrates agreed to the request of the former Andalusian president to suspend serving his sentence in response to the reports of the forensic doctor who recommended not continuing treatment in prison and with the favorable opinion of the Prosecutor’s Office and the PP , who exercises the private prosecution.
On April 11, the former Andalusian Employment Minister, Agustín Barberá, who, like Griñán, had asked to suspend the fulfillment of his seven-year prison sentence for embezzlement, for suffering from cancer, entered prison. In his case, the Court of Seville ruled that, although “he suffers from a serious and incurable disease”, in view of the medical documentation submitted by his defense and the report from the prison, “his treatment can be provided in said center, with the hospital check-ups to which it must be submitted”
Griñán’s defense, like that of the rest of the seven convicted former Junta leaders who are already serving their sentences in prisons, has filed an appeal for protection before the Constitutional Court. A circumstance that for the lawyer of the former socialist leader, José María Calero, could postpone his entry into prison, “as long as that request has not yet been answered,” according to the lawyer.
