Summary
When Isak Andic, who created the Mango clothes brand, died from a fall while our hiking with his only son, Jonathan, in the mountains outside Barcelona, it was treated as a tragic accident. But for the Spanish police, something about events on that hiking trail in December 2024 just didn’t add up. First there were inconsistencies in Jonathan’s police statements. Then forensics found evidence that suggested something more sinister may have happened to the 71-year-old billionaire. In May, in a move that created shock and headlines in Spain, Jonathan was arrested in connection with his 71-year-old father’s death. He has been released from custody having posted €1 million in bail. But what happens now? Will the case go to trial to decide if the fashion mogul’s death was an accident or murder? Madrid-based reporter Guy Hedgecoe has been following the story. Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
