SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Dec. 15 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Superior Prosecutor of the Canary Islands, María Farnés, highlighted this Thursday the work carried out by the Civil Guard during the disappearance of the girls Anna and Olivia Zimmerman last year and which ended with an “illuminating” report on the case.
“They worked night and day with the media, analyzing millions of telephone connections,” he detailed before Parliament’s Justice and Interior Commission, in which he made it clear that the conclusion is that Tomás Gimeno, the girls’ father, committed suicide.
He has pointed out that the international search and capture order is still in force although the procedure has been dismissed as a result of the final report of the armed institute, although he acknowledges that if the body does not appear it will be “very difficult to find out” for sure. “We will never know, although all the indications lead to it,” she said.
He has also said that in his 37-year judicial career he does not remember an investigation of “such caliber” and with measures “as effective and laborious” as the one carried out by the Civil Guard and the rest of the security forces that intervened.
