Three years in prison for couple who built illegal property in Alfarnate

married couple resident in Alfarnate, a small village in the north of Málaga province near the border with Granada, have been sentenced to three years in prison for building a two-storey dwelling on land classified as unsuitable for development.

They had no planning permission to go ahead with the work, and are reported to have built the house as the start of a more extensive project for a tourist complex, which would have included other houses and a common area for the guests.

EFE reports that the couple ignored several orders from the local Town Hall to stop the building work and have now been found guilty of planning crimes and disobedience. They have also been ordered to demolish the construction and return the land to its previous condition.

There has been no indication in reports of the couple’s nationalities.
