Spanish court closes investigation into the death of José Eduardo dos Santos

Africa-Press – Angola. The Spanish Justice closed the investigation into the death of former Angolan President José Eduardo dos Santos, confirming that it was due to morning causes, contradicting the accusation of one of the daughters of the deceased.

The decision of a court in Barcelona, ​​in the Spanish region of Catalonia, closed the case, concluding that José Eduardo dos Santos died in that city of “exclusively natural causes” on July 8, as the initial conclusions of the autopsy had already determined.

The judicial investigation was opened following a complaint by some children of the former President of Angola, who invoked the possibility that their father had died due to negligence in the care provided to him by the personal doctor and the last wife, Ana Paula dos Santos.

In the decision made today, quoted by the EFE, Europa Press and AFP news agencies, the judge states that “the lack of evidence of said crime, in view of the definitive autopsy report and the health documents included in the case file, lead to the provisional and to the filing of the case”.

“There are no elements that allow us to consider that he was not given care at any time”, adds the decision of the Barcelona court.
