Overview

• Mossos d'Esquadra and Guardia Civil carried out coordinated arrests in Catalonia and the detainees are expected to appear before the Solsona examining judge.
• The suspects are identified in reports as R. A.C., a tío político of Marc Márquez; F. G.P., a retired Guardia Civil commander; and N. G.B., a Lleida workshop owner.
• Sources cited by EL PAÍS say the retired commander is not suspected of direct participation in the killing, though his precise role has not been detailed.
• The victim, Joan Coromina Estany, 61, was shot once from over 100 meters in the Baronía de Rialb forest and the bullet was later recovered near his body.
• Investigators combined witness accounts with meticulous phone-antenna checks and a renewed examination of the victim’s white Citroën Berlingo to focus the case.
