Judge Releases Four Detained in Pamplona Assault After DNA Excludes Them

The case remains open after tests found a male genetic profile that matches none of the detainees.

Overview

  • The Pamplona court overseeing violence against women lifted the men's provisional imprisonment on December 19 after receiving Nasertic’s DNA report.
  • The laboratory analysis identified a male genetic profile that does not correspond to any of the four Algerian nationals aged 33, 26, 26 and 25.
  • The men must appear whenever summoned and provide a fixed address under court-imposed conditions while the investigation continues.
  • A forensic medical examination documented injuries consistent with a non-consensual sexual act following the October 23 incident near the Carpa Universitaria.
  • Investigators recovered the victim’s intimate clothing, mobile phone, wallet and purse near a nearby tent encampment, but the perpetrator or perpetrators have not been identified.
