Eight people lost their lives in the sinking of the boat which went down off Barbate in September last year.

A report on the sinking of the fishing boat ‘Nuevo Pepita Aurora’ off the coast of Barbate in Cádiz last September, has said that the boat was carrying a greater than permitted weight in nets, and that the water escapes from the deck of the vessel were closed.

Eight people lost their lives in the tragedy, and now sources close to the case told Europa Press that the prosecutor is to charge the captain of the ship, ‘so that all the circumstances can be cleared up’.

The hearing will also see the recordings of the divers who went down to the vessel during the rescue operation.
