ALEJANDRO MISSING GRANADA | His family points to revenge as the cause of his disappearance

The young man, 25 years old, did not leave his van or his bike. Both were still at his house when he lost track of her, on July 13. The family found the vehicle with the windows down

Red shorts, gray t-shirt and dark sneakers. 1’70 tall. Normal complexion. His name is Alejandro Muñoz and for two months there has been no trace of him. He is missing.

He spoke to his family for the last time on July 13. “He didn’t say goodbye at all,” his brother Juan points out to OPEN CASE. “He met with my brother-in-law to see, the next day, something about the van’s brake pads.” In the ‘El Barranco’ neighborhood (Atarfe, Granada); In his neighborhood, no one has seen him again.

His phone – which he never parted with – his keys and his documentation appeared in his van, parked near his house. “The windows were down,” Juan steps back. “There is something strange.”

“Something has happened”

Thursday, July 13. The clock shows 8:30 p.m. “Tomorrow you stop by, we’ll go see about the brake pads,” his brother-in-law proposed to Alejandro. He nodded and replied, “See you tomorrow.” That was his last conversation, explains his brother. “The last one who saw him was my brother-in-law. He was with him at the door of his house because he had some pills for the van.” After that, Alejandro went down the street to fill some water cans before entering the house. “And that’s it, we never saw him again.”

“Although my brother lived alone, he is a child who did everything at my parents’ house.” At dinner time, the alert went off. “My father got worried because that night he didn’t come to his house. He called his phone, no one picked up, he called him, he called him & mldr;”, explains Juan. Instinct told them something was happening, and they were right.: They went to Alexander’s door. He was not there.

“When we arrived we saw the van.” He wasn’t there. “But there was his cell phone on the seat, his cards, his documentation and the window rolled down… I didn’t like it. That’s when I told my father: there is something strange here. This is not normal.”

At the door, they spent a few moments thinking. “If my brother wasn’t in a van, he was on a bicycle, he never left her side.” But the bike was at home too. They entered the home, they did not see anything in the house that attracted attention. They tried to calm down, they gave them some time, but Alejandro did not arrive. “A normal, ordinary person… You don’t leave the window down in the van and your cell phone, your health card… everything there, on the couch.” The alarms went off and they did not go out anymore.

No trace, no news. Without witnesses, without any type of information, the family went to the Civil Guard. After the first interrogations, the agents combed the nearby areas. The family, as a group, also went out to search. “We were on the street until they told us to stop searching.”

The first posters were made. They asked here and there, “no one knew anything.” A week later, the search was expanded to the Cubillas reservoir. Diving experts, the GEAS, attended. There was no success. “I think they looked at him for dismissal.”

Alejandro’s photo flooded social networks. “Disappeared, maximum diffusion, please.” “He is only 25 years old, his family is destroyed, we need his collaboration.” The call took effect. “We received a message from a girl from Córdoba,” Juan remembers. “It was through the TikTok account. He told us that Alejandro was fine, but that he didn’t want to know anything about our surroundings.“. The message shocked the family, but they decided to transfer the information to the Civil Guard. “They were investigating, they went to collect the testimony and the woman said it was a lie.” He denied it.

Everything returned to the starting point. Alejandro was not there, there was no more. The agents reconstructed their daily lives. “In his normal life, he was a child… how to say, a little strange. I didn’t usually leave here. She liked his neighborhood, the environment where she lived, and she had no aspirations to ever move away.“They all agree when drawing Alejandro always with his bike, rather solitary in terms of day-to-day life, but very familiar.

“My brother was a van or bicycle kid,” Juan tries to reconstruct. “Neither of them has taken them. I have the feeling, honestly, that they have taken him out of the car.“, he laments. “They could have put him at gunpoint…”, he pointed out to the investigators. “The previous days he was a bit strange. He told me: ‘I feel watched.’ He was afraid. My brother felt overwhelmed.” The agents, in their range of hypotheses, pointed out the family’s suspicion, and are investigating in that direction.

Shootout and revenge

“I wish he was okay, but I know my brother… he had everything here, and he wouldn’t have left like that.” Juan pauses, “time is not helping and has given rise to rumors that are not true. That if the score is settled, drugs… Alejandro only had one conflict and it was with a boy“. On the table, a confrontation between two families – Alejandro’s, Juan’s – with another clan from the neighborhood. “This one is from that family. “They’ve been holding a grudge for three years.”

“Alejandro walked in fear and said that they were watching him. “I was locked up and didn’t want to come out,” repeats Juan, who goes over the last conversations with his brother again and again, before disappearing. “And I know what it’s like… Once, because of this conflict, they persecuted me, they They shot…” They saw each other in a trial years ago.

“The truth is that my brother confronted that boy… and that boy had to collect it. It’s a vendetta, a revenge, that’s it“.

Juan, his family, ask for collaboration. “In some photos Alejandro appears with shorter hair, the last time we saw him he had it longer and wavy, but if he is… I don’t know how he will be“. Intuition tells them that something bad has happened: “How is he going to leave like this?”, but uncertainty, sometimes, allows them to dream.

Alejandro, the boy on the bike, who spent his days in the neighborhood, is not there. He had no plan other than to survive. “Without a job, he lived with what he got, to be honest.” His family struggles to find out what happened, why he disappeared. “They are two long, very long months. We neither eat nor have the desire to live…”. They ask for help, “if anyone has seen him or seen something, please tell us, we have to find him no matter what,” Juan implores.
