The initial proceedings have been taken over by the Criminal Investigation Division of the central region, which is investigating the assault and death of the man, identified by some sources as Carles Vilajosana, a Spanish national, a well-known local resident and father of twin children. According to initial reports, a group of young people attacked the victim and left him seriously wounded on the ground, where he later died. Neighbours’ alerts were key in identifying the young Moroccans, who, according to sources, are known to police for their recurrent incidents.

Police sources have explained that the perpetrators have been identified and detained, though they have not yet been formally arrested pending further investigative proceedings. Agents from the DIC, along with public security units and the duty judge, have been working in this street on the outskirts of the capital to recover the body and initiate the investigation. The incident occurred on the final day of Manresa’s major festival.
