A professional Spanish pianist and her parents are facing seven-years in prison for noise pollution and the alleged psychological and physical damage done to their neighbor as a result of incessant, loud piano playing.
When Laia Martin, 27, was honing her piano playing skills as a teen she allegedly was so dedicated she played five-days-a-week, eight-hours-a day. If that wasn’t bad enough her playing registered at 40-decibels, 10-decibels higher than legally acceptable for indoor instruments. Keep in mind that normal conversation registers at a 55-60 decibel level.
Martin’s dedication played off she is now a professional pianist but at the expense of irritated neighbors living above her.
Neighbor Sonia Bosom says she was so damaged by the incessant playing from 2003-2007 she suffered psychological damage, developed a piano-phobia and worse gynecological problems. Bosom also suffers from insomnia, anxiety and panic attacks all due to Martin’s piano playing. Bosom claims she was forced to leave her home in 2007.
You may think Bosom sounds nuts but prosecutors believe they have a case against Martin and family and consider this is a criminal matter not civil. Spanish prosecutors in the town of Girona, an hour away via train from Barcelona, not only want Martin jailed they also want her to stay away from a piano for at least four-years.
The unusual trial started this past Monday and is due to conclude with a verdict on November 15, according to La Vanguaria.

Mexico ( Search in Mexico for Kidnapped Cops Leads to 16 Bodies )
MEXICO CITY – Police and soldiers searching for two federal agents kidnapped earlier this month in the western state of Michoacan discovered 16 bodies in clandestine graves, sources in the Mexican Attorney General’s Office told Efe on Friday.Neither of the missing agents is among the dead, the sources said.
Some of the victims were bound and gagged and bore signs of torture, while most of them sported tattoos.
Authorities suspect the 16 bodies belong to “people who have some tie or relation” to gangland strife in Michoacan, one source said, referring to clashes between the rival Jalisco Nueva Generacion and Los Caballeros Templarios (Knights Templar) crime outfits.
Rene Rojas Marquez and Gabriel Quijano Santiago, both investigators with the AG’s office, went missing Nov. 3 while on assignment in Michoacan.
Superiors lost contact with the agents while the two men were traveling in an official vehicle, which was later found burned.
A score of municipal police officers and a civilian are in custody in connection with the disappearance of the federal investigators.
Based on the statements from the suspects, the AG’s office believes Rojas and Quijano were arrested by corrupt cops who then handed them over to cartel gunmen.
The AG’s office has doubled the size of the contingent looking for the kidnapped agents.
Michoacan is one of the states where the federal government is focusing its security operations because of the strong presence of drug traffickers.

According to the report of Human Rights Activists News Agency in Iran (HRANA), on November 11, Saeed Masouri’s leg injured severely during volleyball and the other prisoners took him to the clinic for medical treatment but they faced negligence onto this political prisoner’s medical process.
A source told HRANA reporter: “Saeed’s right leg injured severely while he was playing volleyball. The prisoners guessed his ankle is broken then they transferred Saeed to the clinic. The clinic staff did not even take X-ray of his leg and sent him back to the ward. Now after two days his leg got worse and even he can not stand and walk with his right leg.”
Saeed Masouri was arrested in December 2000 in Dezfoul with Gholam Hossein Kalbi in accusation of collaboration with MEK. He has been imprisoned since that time in Ahwaz intelligence detention center, Evin and Rajaie Shahr prison without having any furlough.
Two years later in 2002 he was sentenced to death in Tehran revolutionary court but eventually his verdict diminished to life imprisonment.
Saeed was in solitary confinement of Ahwaz intelligence for 14 months and then was transferred to ward 209 of Evin prison.
