Overview
- The Guardia Civil detained the 21-year-old mother and her boyfriend, who is not the child's father, in connection with the case.
- The boy's body was found late Wednesday on a rocky stretch between Garrucha and Mojácar with signs of violence.
- A relative alerted emergency services after receiving a message saying the child had been left in a beach hut, prompting a coordinated search.
- Authorities say the investigation is under judicial secrecy, and the detainees can be held for up to 72 hours before being brought to court.
- Sources report the man had an active restraining order involving the mother, and an unverified video and accounts allege prior mistreatment of the child.
