The girls accused their teachers of causing "injury", as reported yesterday by the Guardia Civil. The Andalusian responsible for the protection of minors and the center, has opened an investigation. It is unclear why the officers let them go despite the leak had been reported.
was a day early on Sunday when the director of the complex filed with the Civil Guard in Palma del Rio, a first complaint that warned that the five children had left the center of Santa Maria Prado. It is a farmhouse isolated and surrounded by fields within one kilometer of the road from Palma del Rio and Hornachuelos. It is not a reformatory closed, but a center that treats girls with personality disorders.
After leaving, the children came on Monday morning at the same Civil Guard barracks in Palma del Río. They in turn reported to the workers of the unit. Five medical reports attached to the center of Palma del Río Health. In those parts detailing how one of them has a "bruised right eye and a tooth. Another had a bruised chest and a third states that they have stuck a slap in the right thigh. "
The Department of Children and Families of the Junta de Andalucía announced yesterday that it has opened "diligence information" to clarify "versions differ on some alleged ill-treatment" reported by the girls.
