Outrage after men found guilty of sexual abuse not rape as victim was ‘unconscious’ www.independent.co.uk

Five men accused of gang raping a 14-year-old girl have been acquitted of sexual assault because the victim was in an “unconscious state”.
Sexual assault under Spanish law is the equivalent of rape and carries a prison sentence of between 15 and 20 years.
Prosecutors told the court that six men took turns to abuse the child on 29 October 2016.
But on Thursday, the court ruled that the men did not commit sexual assault, according to El Pais.
All six men were acquitted of sexual assault.​Instead the five men were convicted of sexual abuse of a minor.
