Kill 25 people in Spain, and they may sentence you to prison. But it’s pretty easy to get out; just stage a hunger strike. (Hat tip: Sugiero.)
MADRID - An ETA terrorist who has killed 25 people left hospital on Thursday to serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest after a 100-day hunger strike.
José Ignacio de Juana Chaos, who has served 18 years for his crimes, was released from secure custody in hospital where he had been serving the rest of his three year sentence.
De Chaos had been admitted to hospital after he started a hunger strike in November in protest at a new sentence imposed for writing two articles which a court ruled made terrorist threats.
The decision to let De Chaos out of hospital and serve the remains of his term at home will be hugely controversial.
