One of the three arrested between Monday afternoon and evening for the attempted murder of politician Alejo Vidal-Quadras now represents the Gordian knot of the investigations for investigators. This is a Spanish man who planned the attack and participated in it, although he is not the author of the shot. The individual was detained in Lanjarón (Granada) along with his British partner and the General Information Commission is investigating his links with a mosque in the province, sources close to the investigation inform elDiario.es. Always according to the Police, the individual had converted from Christianity to Islam.

The agents are now focusing on determining if the idea for the attack came from this individual or if he was some kind of coordinator of the attack. The main hypothesis continues to be a commission from the Iranian regime, once it has been investigated who could have motives for wanting to end Vidal-Quadras’s life. It was the victim who warned from the first moment that Tehran would be behind the attack, due to his links and support to the Shiite country’s opposition.
