Spain king's daughter suspected in corruption case
MADRID (AP) — In another blow to Spain's royal family, a court named Princess Cristina, the king's daughter, as a suspect Wednesday in a corruption case involving her husband.
The Palma de Mallorca court announced that the 47-year-old princess will be called in for questioning on April 27. She has not been charged with any offense and faces no restrictions on her freedom. Her husband, Inaki Urdangarin, a lead suspect in the investigation, has also not been charged with any crime.
The court summons is a first for a member of the king's immediate family. The Royal Palace expressed surprise at the judge's decision and would not comment about what the princess' defense will be.
The announcement comes after a year of health and image problems for 75-year-old King Juan Carlos, once one of Spain's most popular figures, widely admired for his role in helping steer Spain to democracy in the 1970s after decades of dictatorship.
