Pamplona man detained in Yesa reservoir murder investigation

A man from Pamplona has been placed in provisional imprisonment without bail following the discovery of dismembered human remains in the Yesa reservoir in Sigüés, Zaragoza. The victim has been identified as a 60-year-old French citizen.

The investigation, conducted by the Guardia Civil and the Policía Foral, utilized several key pieces of evidence to link the suspect to the crime. This included the discovery of the victim's microchipped dog near the Morea reservoir, which led authorities to the suspect's residence. At the home, investigators found blood traces on a ceiling, signs of a bleach cleanup, and evidence that the suspect had purchased a sable saw.

The suspect faces multiple charges, including murder, desecration and concealment of a corpse, computer equipment sabotage, and animal abandonment. The judge overseeing the case, from the Court of First Instance and Instruction number 1 of Ejea de los Caballeros, has lifted the secrecy of the proceedings.
