It was one of the most anticipated testimonies in the case before the Barcelona Court against Alba Andreu for inciting her friend Ismael Molina to murder her father at the family home in Vilanova i la Geltru on 8 June 2019. Arnau S., Alba’s former partner accused of abusing him, threatening him, and plotting a fictitious conspiracy with fake characters such as Ishmael’s imaginary and virtual girlfriend Julia, vigilantes and the mafia, appeared before a popular jury this Monday. clans. This young man said, “It got to a point where I was canceled as a person, unable to decide (…) He always answered every question he asked me, at the very least,”.
Words came out of his mouth, reflecting an Alba not as friendly as sitting on the bench. He stated that although the imaginary Alba is real, he eventually discovers that these are an invention, but an Alba who is “manipulative” and dominant and does not want to be with him. Although the accused stated in his statement that it was Arnau, who was also İsmail’s friend, who invented this character, the witness flatly denied this and explained that his partner had convinced him that this woman was made of flesh. and blood, but eventually he realized that this was not the case and tried to warn Ishmael, even though he insisted he had proof. Arnau and Alba had a romantic relationship, until about a month before paranoid schizophrenic Ismael, who, as he confessed, killed his father with a knife to his neck.
Arnau assured the popular court that his relationship with the accused and their separation had left him depressed. and that, among other things, the girl lied to him, she told him she was pregnant. The young man emphasized that he had reached a point where he could not discern the truth about what his partner had told him. When asked if he thought the same thing could happen to İsmail, who has been his friend since childhood, he said, “I guess so. If it happened to me with the support of my family, he broke up . . . “They were together for a long time and he was isolated. It’s easy for that to happen.” According to the prosecution, the purpose of the crime for Alba was to take money from Ismail’s family.
fear of being blamed
The witness said that he did not remember most of the situations in which he was questioned and answered during the investigation of the case, and in this sense, he contradicted himself when answering whether Alba had told Ismail that he had to kill his father. . “At the time, I was afraid that if I told them what I heard, they would blame me for something I didn’t do. I was afraid he would see the expression at first and somehow out for me. Second, they accused him of being an accomplice, even though he did nothing.”
Arnau reported that Alba said in front of him and Ismail that his father beat his mother, but the woman who testified as a witness denied this: “Never in my life has he touched me, not me or my children.” Ismael’s mother reported that her son told her about the parapolis group he was spying on, but did not give her any further details and, in her opinion, the young man believed that unit existed as well as Julia. She claimed that she thought she thought Ismail was involved in “something bad, very bad, like in some kind of cult, especially when he started asking for money.” The case involves bank transfers from Ismael’s parents’ account to Alba. The woman believed she would pay for her son’s education, not knowing to whom he was sent.
