A military court found the man guilty of continued abuse of authority.
A gay Sergeant, in the Military Police in Spain’s North African enclave of Melilla, has been found guilty in the Military Supreme Court of an abuse of authority for caressing a soldier.
He was handed down a nine month jail sentence for continued abuse of authority and degrading treatment of several soldiers.
The man caressed the face of one soldier with the excuse of seeing if he was properly shaved, and referred to Muslim soldiers as ‘Moros de mierda’.
He is also alleged to have said ‘If you move, I will f*** you, but relax, you’re not my type as you are too fat’. The court dismissed the defence argument that nobody serving under the Sergeant had actually complained, saying now in evidence the details had been miniscule and believable.
The Sergeant had previously been found guilty of racialist behaviour by a military court in June 2007, and sentenced to six months in jail.
