Three British tourists sentenced to six years for counterfeit notes in Magalluf

Three British tourists have accepted six years in prison - two for each of them - for staying in a hotel and paying at a nightclub with counterfeit banknotes in Magalluf. The Provincial Court of the Balearic Islands held a pre-trial hearing this morning in which the defendants accepted the sentence with the prosecution, which had initially requested 11 years in prison and a fine of 2,000 euros each for the crime of introducing into Spain and putting counterfeit currency into circulation.
