The Mossos d'Esquadra have reconstructed the fall of Isak Andic in Collbató, which occurred on December 14, 2024. The investigation indicates that his son, Jonathan Andic, took over four minutes to report the incident.

The Central Unit of Forensic Computing of the Mossos d'Esquadra has determined that the fall of Mango's founder, Isak Andic, in Collbató occurred between 12:28:20 and 12:28:26 on December 14th. According to a police report accessed by this media outlet, his son, Jonathan Andic, took 4 minutes and 34 seconds to make the first call to report the incident.
Jonathan Andic's first communication was to his father's partner, Estefanía Knuth. Subsequently, he contacted the 112 emergency service at 12:36:24 and again at 13:13:44. According to the order from Investigating Court number 5 of Martorell, the son reportedly stated that he was walking a few meters ahead of his father when he heard a noise of stones and saw a "lump falling," without being able to see anything else due to the steep terrain.
The judge has noted contradictions in Jonathan Andic's statements. Initially, he stated he was ahead of his father, who was taking photos, but Isak Andic's phone records indicate his last photo was taken at 12:17:20, more than ten minutes before the fall. In a second statement, he changed his account, claiming he heard a noise of rocks and saw a "lump" falling. Finally, in the call to the SEM, he said he saw his father fall and cry out.
These discrepancies have led the judge to consider that the statements "do not correspond to reality" and that active, premeditated, and prepared participation in his father's death cannot be ruled out. The magistrate also points out that only the Andic s were on the trail in Collbató, and that they "never went for walks together," according to an analysis of conversations from the last ten years.
The investigation also considers evidence such as the "son's bad relationship with his father," a "possible financial motive" related to the creation of a foundation, "prior planning and study of the scene," "different versions" of events, autopsy injuries that "practically rule out that the fall was due to a slip or stumble," "Mr. Jonathan Andic's obsession with money," "emotional manipulation," and "hatred, resentment, death wishes" verbalized by the son towards his father.
