The 3Cat production, which will air as a single episode on Nits sense ficció and as a four-part series on the platform, reviews the events that led to the arrest of a group of Pakistanis accused of planning a terrorist attack on the Barcelona metro. The judicial investigation was primarily based on the statement of a repentant terrorist, known as F1.
Is it possible that in Spain you can be convicted of a terrorism offense without any incriminating evidence?
Eighteen years after the events, the documentary, directed by Hammoudi al-Rahmoun Font, seeks to dismantle the judicial process and provide a new perspective on what really happened. Through testimonies collected in cities such as Barcelona, Paris, Lisbon, Brescia, and London, it attempts to understand the complexity of the case and its implications.
One of the key points of the investigation is the possibility of directly questioning the protected witness F1 about his accusations, as the convicted individuals always maintained their innocence. The program also highlights the impact of a potentially unjust conviction on migrant individuals and their families, questioning the use of preventive justice.
