According to police sources told Europa Press, those presumed responsible for his death have been identified, but have fled. As IDEAL has learned from various testimonies from neighbors and relatives of the deceased, the victim was leaving a booth with his partner and was approached by an individual around 07:00. According to the same sources, there was no apparent cause. The witnesses speak directly of an “assault”. In the surroundings there was a visible trail of blood that occupies several meters. Apparently, there is also another young man injured. The injury caused his death, despite resuscitation attempts by the health services since he was transferred to Granada, where he was admitted to the Traumatology area. As sources from the Civil Guard have informed Europa Press, as a result of a fight that took place at the fairgrounds, the aforementioned 19-year-old, a resident of the town itself, would have been attacked until he lost his balance and fell to the ground, where he would have hit his head against a curb, dying while being transferred by ambulance to the hospital in Granada. The victim was a well-liked young neighbor in the village, a student and a member of a working family. Íllora is shocked and also indignant after an event that has reminded her of other recent ones.

The mayor, Antonio Salazar, has issued a decree suspending the festivities: “These events make it necessary to agree on the suspension of all the programming of the Patron Saint Festivities in Íllora as a sign of respect and pain shared with the family of the deceased.”
