The Spanish government has one year to determine whether to grant a pardon to Francisco Garzón, the train driver convicted for the 2013 Alvia rail accident in Angrois. Garzón was sentenced to two and a half years in prison for his role in the derailment, which resulted in 80 deaths and over 100 injuries.
The judge who presided over the case has indicated that there are valid reasons to consider a pardon for the defendant. The executive branch must now review the petition and reach a final decision within the established twelve-month timeframe.
