Sentence trimmed from 15 years to 14 years in response to legislation that in turn was a response to 2016 gang-rape

The rape, which took place during the running of the bulls festival in Pamplona in July 2016, shocked the country, and nationwide protests erupted after the five defendants were initially convicted of the lesser offence of sexual abuse.
