MADRID (Reuters) - The accountant of the King of Spain's brother-in-law has made a detailed written confession laying out how Inaki Urdangarin allegedly embezzled millions of euros through his non-profit organisation Noos Foundation, a Spanish court said on Thursday.

The confession is the latest development in an embarrassing and drawn-out corruption investigation which threatens to hold back the royal family's attempts to rebuild its reputation following last month's coronation of King Felipe VI.
