One year after the accident on the MA-19 motorway in Mallorca (Spain), in which the German tourist Tim V. (20) died, there is now a surprising turnaround. The police assume that the man did not die as a result of an accident, but was murdered.
According to the “Mallorca Zeitung” three people have now been arrested!
At the time, investigators assumed that the German tourist had gotten lost and was drunk on the road. Everything indicated that the man had lost his bearings and was just looking for his hotel. When a Spanish woman hit the man with her Renault Clio, he was only wearing swimming trunks and flip-flops. He died at the scene of the accident.
Right from the start, the case raised many questions. Now the police in Mallorca announced that the alleged accident was not an accident, but a murder. Tim V. is said to have been pushed out of a moving car on October 8, 2022. It is unclear whether he was still alive at this point.
Further details will be announced at a press conference on Friday afternoon.
