A young man who became deaf after an assault on a soldier in the capital of Alto Aragon last September will remain on parole for the time being. He was described by the nominal magistrate of the Civil Court of First Instance and Directive No. 5 in Huesca as the person responsible for causing serious bodily harm, according to the report reviewed by authorities. The case centers on how the assault unfolded, the injuries sustained, and the ongoing legal process involving the accused and his representation.

The assessment relies on a formal report prepared by the Institute of Forensic Medicine and Forensic Sciences and the accompanying forensic investigation. The National Police reported that around 1:40 in the morning on September 5, the individual known as AGG, also called Andresito, allegedly punched or slapped the victim. The blow caused the victim to collapse to the ground, striking the asphalt with his head and neck. The victim experienced a brief loss of consciousness, accompanied by significant bleeding from the mouth and head. The incident itself occurred during a night of heightened tensions in the area, with witnesses describing a sudden and forceful confrontation. The forensic findings and eyewitness statements were used to frame the events and guide the ongoing legal actions [Source: Institute of Forensic Medicine and Forensic Sciences].

The consequences of the attack were severe. Medical professionals determined that the victim suffered a bilateral fracture of the petrous bone, a subdural hematoma, and a complete bilateral hearing loss on the left side with substantial hearing impairment on the right. There was also vestibular disruption that required medical intervention, including brain surgery to drain the hematoma and the implantation of a cochlear device. The medical team’s assessment highlighted the gravity of the injuries and their long-term impact on the victim’s balance, hearing, and overall neurological function, which factored into the judicial considerations and the seriousness of the charges being pursued [Source: Medical examination records].

In the wake of the incident, prosecutors initiated formal proceedings and opened a prosecutorial review to determine charges. The attorney representing the prosecution outlined the case against the accused, while the defense, led by lawyer Ignacio Sarraseca, prepared a counter-narrative. The proceedings reflect the standard process in which evidence gathered from forensic reports, police records, and witness testimonies undergoes careful evaluation before legal arguments are presented in court. The balance of responsibilities between the prosecutor and defense counsel is aimed at ensuring due process and a comprehensive examination of all factors surrounding the incident.

Parallel developments show that additional investigations are taking place regarding the actions of the accused’s companions. Authorities are examining the broader context of the night in question, where additional youths were reported to have resisted arrest and, in some accounts, confronted National Police officers in an attempt to prevent the apprehension of others involved. This parallel line of inquiry underscores how events of that evening prompted multiple strands of investigation, including potential charges against individuals who participated in confrontations with law enforcement. The multilayer nature of the case illustrates how legal systems pursue accountability from all parties involved while weighing public safety and individual rights.
