Two men plead gulty to insurance fraud
The two admitted crashing a dealers car in 1998 to collect insurance compensation.
Two men accused of setting up a fake accident on the A7 in Murcia in December 1998 in order to collect 6,200 € insurance money, admitted the charge in the Murcia Provincial Court yesterday.
The admission meant that the case against the men no longer needed to continue.
They admitted that one of them crashed and wrote off a showroom car being test driven on purpose alone, but then claimed that it had been hit laterally by the other driver. The two then filed a ‘friendly’ insurance claim, and received 6,200 € in compensation.
They money now has to be repaid, and each have been fined 720 € and handed down a suspended year prison sentence.
