In a press release, the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) indicated that the suspect, already known to the police, had been taken into custody on Friday, on the instructions of the competent prosecutor’s office. But on Saturday around 10:30 p.m., he had a malaise that required his transfer to the hospital to receive the necessary care.

His body was deposited at the morgue for an autopsy to determine the cause of death, the press release continues, which states that a parallel investigation has been opened.
