During the trial, nine young people claimed that their coach, a former Osasuna inspector, was sending them sexual messages
The Court of La Rioja held its first hearing on Tuesday against the accused of sexual abuse of children under the age of 16.
Nine young people have stated that, when they were minors, their then football coach sent them messageswith sexual content, tried to stay alone with them, asked them for nude photos and promised some of them to sign up for Osasuna , as they have assured this Tuesday in the trial against this man in Logroño, whois charged with S abuse and other crimes.
The Court of La Rioja has held its first session against a former coach of the Varea Sports Club (Logroño) and former inspector of the Osasuna Club. The prosecutor requests 46 years and nine months' imprisonment for continuing sexual abuse of minors, sexual harassment, child pornography and disclosure of secrets.
These events occurred between 2020 and 2022 , when the defendant was training on several football teams in Logroño, where the victims were between the ages of 15 and 17.
The case arose when a mother became aware of the sexual messages sent by the defendant to her son, which the victim gave to a friend of hers through screenshots, at the request of the defendant, because the young man had deleted all the conversations.
After reporting these events to the Spanish National Police in 2022, the coach was arrested and other potential victims were identified after the contents were removed from his mobile phone and tablet, including dozens of photographs ofnaked young peopletaken in costumes in sports facilities without permission.
