 MADRID - The Spanish state prosecutor is calling for a record 270,000 years jail for 29 people due to stand trial in February for the Madrid train bombings which killed 191 people, a judicial source said on Monday.
| Great padlock you have for the gate to that empty barn. |
Seven of those charged are set to face prison terms of around 40,000 years, although in practice the legal maximum they will actually serve is 40 years.
| With time off, good behavior and Y'urp-peon sensitivity that should be about, oh, 8 years in the clink. A nice prison, mind you. |
The high court is due to unveil on Tuesday the full extent of the terms sought for those implicated in SpainÂ’s worst ever attack prior to a trial set to start in February and last for some six months. |
