| Juan Carlos lost his immunity from prosecution when he passed the throne on to his son, Felipe |
Juan Carlos, 76, lost his immunity from prosecution after handing power to his son, Felipe, following a 39-year reign.
A senior politician said amendments would be added to a package of judicial reforms so that only Spain's Supreme Court can hear cases against him.
Two separate paternity suits were filed against Juan Carlos in 2012.
Alberto Sola Jimenez from Spain's Catalonia region and Ingrid Jeanne Satiau, a Belgian national, both claim to be the former king's children.
His legal immunity meant that the suits were not processed at the time but the cases could now be brought again in ordinary courts. » | Friday, June 20, 2014
