A victim of 'El Chicle' in Boiro in 2017: "He grabbed me by the neck and had a knife"

The trial against Abuín for the alleged sexual assault on his sister-in-law continues with the testimony of witnesses

A CORUÑA, 23 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The victim of attempted sexual assault by José Enrique Abuín, 'El Chicle' in December 2017 in Boiro and of kidnapping, has ratified, in the hearing held against him for the alleged rape of his sister-in-law, that he He removed the mobile, grabbed his neck and also had a knife in his hand.

His account of the events, to questions from the private prosecution, coincided in part with the one that Abuín's sister-in-law exposed in the first session of the trial that is being held at the Provincial Court of A Coruña for an alleged sexual assault committed against her in January from 2005.

In this session, with the presence of Diana Quer's father again -- for whose murder Abuín was sentenced to permanent reviewable prison -- the Boiro victim explained that Abuín's sister-in-law, with whom she worked, told her and other colleagues who had been raped by this family member.

As for what happened to her -- crimes of consummated illegal detention and another attempted sexual assault for which 'El Chicle' was sentenced to five years and one month -- she stated: "He grabbed me by the neck and asked me to give him my mobile phone". In addition, he pointed out that he tried to put her in her car "and he succeeded", also carrying "a knife in his hand".

In the trial, a civil guard has declared that he has confirmed that the place of the chapel of San Lorenzo where, according to Abuín's sister-in-law, the sexual assault took place, is an "isolated" rural area. "He was normal," said another agent about the moment he was arrested.

This day has continued with the testimony of witnesses to conclude on Thursday with those summoned for that day, as well as the reports and the reading of the conclusions. The private prosecution and the Prosecutor's Office request 15 years in prison for José Enrique Abuín while the defendant has denied the facts that are accused of in his first statement.

The session on Wednesday continued with the testimony, among others, of Abuín's relatives, specifically a cousin and an aunt, who were brought by the defense as witnesses and who were asked by this party about the day of the events. Before, both mother and son have denied having testified in the Noia court and, even when their signature was shown, they claimed not to remember it.

"I didn't go anywhere, don't tell me," said the defendant's aunt when asked about this appearance. "I'm not going to answer that," she assured when asked if she had lent money to her nephew. She finally answered "yes" when the court informed her that she was obliged to answer.

Before them, a former co-worker of 'El Chicle' has testified, who confirmed that the defendant was late for work that day, and another former friend who stated that he had seen his car around "nine, nine thirty" in the area that It is near the place of the furniture factory where he worked. All this to questions from the defense based on the defendant's argument that he was not with his sister-in-law that morning and that he has used to deny being the perpetrator of the sexual assault.
