The Examining Magistrate's Court number three of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria has sent to prison two of the four people arrested in Gran Canaria within the framework of an operation against the recruitment of minors for sexual exploitation, inducement to prostitution and drug trafficking. The two people whom the judicial authority has sent to prison provisionally are Agustín Alemán Barreto, alias Yino, the main suspect in the 18 Lovas case, and José Luis SP It so happens that Yino Alemán Boarret recently processed a change of sex in the registry, so now he appears as a woman, as stated on his ID, according to Canarias7. The operation, called 'Íncubo', carried out five raids and searches in the municipalities of Santa Lucía de Tirajana, Agüimes, Telde and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, according to the Autonomous Police of the Canary Islands. Investigators do not rule out the possibility of more victims and people involved depending on the outcome of the investigation, which remains under confidentiality decreed by the Court of Violence against Children and Adolescents in charge of the investigation of this procedure.
According to Canarias 7, Yino Alemán was transferred on Wednesday to the Juan Grande prison, where he spent the night in the admissions module. The next day, in the morning, he was evaluated by the technical team. Since his arrival, He showed an uncooperative attitude and even had problems with the officers in charge of transferring him to the City of Justice and later to the penitentiary center. Once in prison, he requested that the search be carried out by a woman instead of a man, which immediately activated the suicide prevention protocol, assigning him an inmate to provide him with constant support.. Initially, the management of the centre decided that Alemán would be assigned to module 1, known for being "maximum respect", instead of the women's module, despite his recent sex change. This decision was made in accordance with the prison integration protocol for transsexual people, which establishes that the assignment to the module is made according to the "apparent sexual identity" of the inmate, taking into account both his physiological characteristics.
