Calderon charged over assembly irregularities

Judge Santiago Torres has charged the pair, along with 12 others, with offences relating to destruction, suppression or concealment of public documents and using false documents, the Madrid court said in a statement.

The accused have been called to appear in court on May 20 and 21 to answer the charges and the judge also ordered an examination of the veracity of the club accounts presented at the assembly, it added.

Calderon's resignation in January threw the Primera Liga club into institutional turmoil and the June 14 elections have paved the way for a possible comeback by former president Florentino Perez.
