Font size

The alleged hitman arrested in relation to the murder in Marbella of plastic surgeon Alexander Aslani is already in jail. The only person arrested in relation to a crime that has shocked the Costa del Sol has been brought to justice this Saturday and, after testifying before the competent court, the head of the aforementioned judicial body has ordered his entry into prison.

In his statement, the suspect who pulled the trigger that ended Aslani's life has repeatedly denied being the material author of the shooting. The investigation, led by the UDEV 2 homicide group of the National Police in Marbella, managed to arrest him and bring him to justice in record time.

Less than 24 hours after the crime was committed, investigators found his location, set up a complex device and managed to arrest him. "It was key to stop it in the first 72 hours," sources close to the case told EL MUNDO. If he had not done so, he would have left the country and the investigation would have become complicated and prolonged, they emphasize.

In those 72 hours, the agents of this team of professionals did not stop by his house to rest and they were not even able to sleep. And they have not done it, they say from those around them, because "they are moved by their sense of responsibility and their commitment to citizens." Seeing the grateful face of the victim's relatives is the main reward today.

The detainee is a second-generation Swedish hired hitman. This refers to citizens born in Europe, but of foreign parents. The accused is only 18 years old and had traveled to Spain from Sweden to commit the crime. To achieve its objective it would have had a support network on the Costa del Sol.

Open Questions

  • ?Who makes up the suspect's support network on the Costa del Sol?
  • ?What was the exact motive for the murder?
