Earlier this year the judge had given Ramirez Rodriguez time to repay the money. The court was told a total of €18,050 had now been provided, but an outstanding amount of about €10,900 remained unpaid. The judge noted many of the students were severely affected by the deception. “These students travelled a long distance to come here, and it only came to light when they found out they were not registered for a course.”

The judge ordered that the €18,050 handed over by Ramirez be divided on a pro-rata basis among the 18 injured parties.
