Two hooded men have sneaked into Puerto Banus in broad daylight and they have abandoned the body of a dying man in the Marbella marina. The event occurred minutes before one o’clock in the afternoon near the gas station located at the mouth of Banus.
A semi-rigid rubber boat has arrived at full speed and two people dressed in black and with balaclavas – a witness to what happened, Cristina, tells EL MUNDO – have abandoned an unconscious and seriously injured man there before the astonished gaze of tourists and employees of nearby businesses.
“What happened barely lasted thirty seconds,” says Cristina, still in shock. She was talking to her partner and was able to see everything firsthand. ““They were covered and only their eyes were visible, they threw the body and started screaming.” in a language that she has not been able to understand. Then they left at full speed through the same place they had arrived, he adds.
The port staff treated the man, called the emergency services and tried to revive him, but when the paramedics arrived they were unable to do anything other than certify his death.
Sources close to the investigation have indicated to this newspaper that at the moment it is unknown if the man was still alive when he was thrown into the sea or if, on the contrary, he was already dead, a question that the forensic experts will determine after performing the autopsy.
Among the hypotheses that the Civil Guard is considering, the one that a confrontation could have occurred between rival gangs on the high seas is especially relevant. one of the crew members was badly injured of the drug boat that has reached Marbella.
The man’s companions, whose identity is unknown, would have sneaked into the port in search of help for the dying man and would have taken him to the mouth with the intention of leaving him in a safe area where they could help him.
Although in the first moments of confusion about what happened and with the nervousness of the witnesses, the Emergency Coordination Center 112 reported that they had been alerted by an accident that had occurred between two ships and in which there was a seriously injured person.
