The public prosecutor's office has announced it has filed an opposition brief against the defense's request to lift the precautionary measures imposed on Jonathan Andic following the death of his father, Isak, in Collbató in December 2024. The defense considered a one million euro bail, passport seizure, and weekly court appearances to be excessive measures given the weakness of the incriminating evidence.
The prosecution is counterattacking with a response that seeks to dismantle the arguments of Andic's lawyers, focusing on mobile phone messages extracted from the devices. According to the public prosecutor, these messages contradict the supposed good relationship between father and son, a circumstance the defense attempted to nuance by arguing they were part of psychological therapy.
The prosecutor's brief aims to neutralize the defense's arguments and convince the judge that the measure is even generous. The public prosecutor argues that the precautionary measures must be maintained in light of the existing evidence, derived from reports by the Mossos d’Esquadra (Catalan Police), analysis of geolocation data, and the victim's mobile phone content.
The prosecution disagrees with the argument that there is no flight risk, taking into account the "extremely high economic capacity" of Jonathan Andic, son of the man who was once the richest in Catalonia, and the significant prison sentence he could face if found guilty of homicide. Therefore, it requests that the current precautionary measures be maintained.
