The Civil Guard arrests the alleged murderer of a man found dead in a farmhouse in Almería

The Civil Guard has arrested a 45-year-old man for the crime of homicide who has allegedly ended the life of the owner of a house in which the arrested man was squatting in Vícar (Almería).

The armed institute has reported in a note that the victim and detainee had resided for years in the same farmhouse in Vícar, each in a separate room from the other.

The arrested person resided in the place with the permission of the original owner and the victim paid a rent, but later the latter "recently" bought the entire farmhouse.

For this reason, he asked the occupant to leave on "numerous occasions".

According to the note from the armed institute, the operation called Yakla began on January 10, when Andalusia's 112 alerted the Civil Guard that a woman had located the body "lifeless and with obvious signs of violence" of her husband, another man of Moroccan origin, in the farmhouse where they lived, in the aforementioned Almeria town.

Specialists from the criminalistics laboratory of the Organic Unit of the Judicial Police (UOPJ) of the Almería Civil Guard Command went to the place to collect and analyze all the available evidence.

The investigators determined that the now detainee, a citizen of Moroccan origin residing in Spain, had beaten and stabbed the deceased several times after a "heated discussion" in which the deceased had once again demanded that he leave the farmhouse.

In addition, as they have explained, the arrested man had prepared his escape to Huelva with a pirate taxi, but he was arrested before he could escape.

In his arrest, the collaboration of the Central Operative Unit (UCO) of the Civil Guard has been crucial, which provided technical support to the investigators to locate the suspect and position him.

The proceedings carried out together with the detainee have been made available to the Investigating Court Number 5 of Almería, which has ordered his admission to prison without bail.
