The bachelor party should not have cost so much: eleven young people who had caused a scandal on board a Spanish TGV between Madrid and Malaga (south) were sentenced to reimburse 7,676 euros for the delay caused by their disturbance.
The revelers had to compensate Renfe, the Spanish railway company, which had paid the same amount to the other 216 travelers for the 23-minute delay in their arrival in Malaga, the railway company said in a press release on Monday.
698 euros per party attendee
On July 6, 2018, the rioters had interrupted on board the train, “screaming, singing, hitting the walls of the train and disobeying calls from Renfe staff to calm down”. The company then decided to apply its regulations for the “evacuation of passengers” that cause “disturbances of order or endanger the safety of transport.”
But the group of young people refused to leave the train at the Córdoba station, before its terminal in Málaga. And the police had to be called to force them down.
Renfe had taken the case to court and a court in Madrid ruled in its favor. The addition is salty for an “EVJG” (bachelor party) since it amounts to 697.82 euros for each of these young people, Renfe specifies.
