The National Police continues to search – as a top priority in the case – for the person who yesterday shot one of the founders of Vox, Alejo Vidal-Quadras, in the heart of Madrid. He fled, along with an accomplice, on a large cylinder motorcycle, which was later found burned in an open field south of Madrid. The motorcycle is, according to police sources, the main clue that investigators are using to try to find the alleged perpetrators, after in the last few hours another clue in which there was some hope to shed light on the crime has been ruled out. affair.
Yesterday, an individual delivered to the Fuenlabrada Police Station (Madrid) a pendrive in which, supposedly, there was information about the burned motorcycle. The man who made the delivery told the agents that the pendrive contained data that could be useful in solving the case. However, as police sources explain to La Vanguardia, the analysis of the electronic device carried out has not provided "anything of interest."
In this way, at the center of the investigation right now there are two scenarios. On the one hand, the information that the trace being made to the license plate of the motorcycle with which the attackers fled could provide. On the other hand, the security cameras of the surrounding shops and bars where the event took place.
The same sources explain that the surveillance cameras could not only provide information about who the perpetrators of the attack are, but also clues about its organization. For example, if they were seen in previous days hanging around the area where the former leader of the Popular Party in Catalonia lives, he is recovering in the hospital after undergoing emergency surgery yesterday.
It was precisely Vidal-Quadras who, after recovering from the initial shock, linked the attack suffered to his contacts with the Iranian opposition. Although it was initially the V Homicide Group that took charge of the investigation, the investigations have now been taken over by the Information Brigade of the National Police of Madrid due to the alleged nature of the attack.
The experts on terrorism and radical and violent groups of the National Police have not yet taken a statement from the former leader of the popular parties in Catalonia. Sources close to the case explain that although the victim herself has pointed out where the investigation should be directed, there are other lines of open and non-dismissable hypotheses linked to the politician's personal matters.
