Overview

  • The three executors of Pere Mir’s estate have filed an appeal with the Audiencia Provincial to revoke the judicial administration imposed on the Cellex and Mir Puig foundations.
  • They maintain that all actions taken complied with Mir’s notarized instructions, which granted them broad authority over his legacy, including assets held in Panamanian foundations.
  • The executors oppose the analysis of their mobile phones by the Mossos d’Esquadra, arguing it infringes on their rights and is unwarranted.
  • Investigators allege mismanagement, including the diversion of €6.2 million in assets, while the executors claim the accusations stem from misinterpretations of Mir’s estate structure.
  • The foundations remain under the administration of the Protectorate of Foundations as the criminal investigation continues into the alleged decapitalization of Mir’s philanthropic legacy.
