The judge closes the case against Juana Rivas for child abduction
The magistrate considers that the stay of the youngest child with her between December and August 2025, and not with his father, lacks criminal relevance.
Judge Susana Álvarez Civantos has decided to provisionally dismiss and file a case against Juana Rivas, who was accused by her ex-partner Francesco Arcuri of child abduction. The judge believes the facts do not constitute a crime, in line with the Granada prosecutor's assessment in mid-September. Arcuri's lawyer has announced plans to appeal the decision to the Provincial Court of Granada. Rivas' defense has welcomed the judge's resolution. The case is now pending a final decision from the Provincial Court of Granada.
