The investigation into the sexist assault on two women in Malaga at whom a man threw sulfuric acid has been completed.
The Civil Guard has arrested this week who is considered the material author of the facts: Juan José GR It was the piece that was missing in the police investigations until he was located and arrested last Wednesday in a house in Fuengirola.
In his court statement, he himself has confessed to spraying the two women with acid.
Accused of two crimes of attempted murder, he has already entered prison.
There is also the ex-partner of one of the victims, José Arcadio DN, known as
El Melillero
, whom the Civil Guard considers co-author of the facts.
Two other people who allegedly helped him during his two days on the run are also in jail.
The victims remain hospitalized, although their families have asked the hospitals not to provide more information about their progress.
One day after his arrest,
El Melillero
was transferred to the farm where he had been located after 48 hours of an escape that included two police chases and the participation of more than 200 police officers.
The Civil Guard wanted to reconstruct the facts.
"I have not done anything, I did not go," said José Arcadio DN That day five more people were arrested for helping him in his escape, but sources from the investigation explained that it was still open and more arrests were not ruled out because something did not end to square, as they have finally been able to confirm.
From the Superior Court of Justice of Andalusia (TSJA) they have affirmed that the now detainee has admitted to being the person who sprayed the two women with acid.
In fact, police sources have explained that the arrested man still has several burns on his arms, the result of the splashes of sulfuric acid that the two women threw through the hole in the car window.
That meeting was not accidental: the Civil Guard has intervened two monitoring beacons in the vehicles of each of the assaulted women, which allowed the aggressors to know their location at all times.
The events occurred on January 12.
Around two in the afternoon, a car in which the two detainees were traveling approached the white car in which the former sentimental partner of
El Melillero
, 26, was
traveling
, as well as a friend of this, 29 years old.
After an argument, the now detained man allegedly threw sulfuric acid through a crack in the window into the interior of the vehicle and fled with the co-perpetrator of the sexist aggression, who was arrested two days later after an intense search throughout the coast. del Sol. The two women were seriously injured and had to be transferred to hospitals.
One of them, the ex-girlfriend, had burns in the middle of her body and the affected respiratory tract, for which she was taken by helicopter to the Major Burns Unit of the Virgen del Rocío hospital, in Seville.
José Arcadio DN has been in prison for two months, from where he only left days after his arrest to participate in a trial as accused of beating another ex-partner, with whom he has a child in common.
The court, in fact, sentenced him to more than seven months in prison for repeatedly beating the woman after finding her in a Marbella nightclub in 2016. The man has a long criminal record and until last January he had seven warrants for detention for various crimes, as well as convictions for crimes against road safety and assaulting and injuring an agent of the National Police.
Abuse, threats, robbery with force and intimidation, belonging to a criminal group or drug trafficking are other crimes that are accused and that are still pending trial.
