In Mijas, a second murder has occurred within 48 hours, prompting widespread concern. The body of a man was found in a ravine near the Calaburras lighthouse, showing signs of extreme violence, including burns and being bound.

The victim’s body was discovered in a difficult-to-access ravine. According to reports from Diario Sur, the man had been severely burned and bound, with a hood found nearby. Authorities have yet to confirm whether the hood was worn by the victim or merely placed next to the body.

Connection to previous shooting in Calahonda

This grisly find follows another violent incident in the same area just two days earlier. On that occasion, a man believed to be in his 30s, reportedly from Liverpool, was shot and killed in broad daylight. He had just finished playing football at a local family sports area in Calahonda. The police are still investigating whether the two murders are connected.

Ongoing investigation by Guardia Civil

The Guardia Civil is currently investigating both cases. However, authorities have not provided any official statements regarding a potential link between the two murders. The investigation continues as the police examine the circumstances surrounding both deaths and gather evidence from the crime scenes.

Local residents and visitors are growing increasingly concerned about the spate of violence in the area. However, the police have assured the public that they are working to uncover the truth behind these killings.

Authorities urge vigilance

As investigations continue, the Guardia Civil is urging anyone with information about the murders to come forward. They are particularly interested in any witnesses who may have seen suspicious activity near the locations of both crimes in the days leading up to the murders.

The motive behind the killings remains unclear, and the police have not ruled out any possible theories, including organised crime or personal vendettas.
