Young people falsely accused of killing a woman in Burgos over far-right accounts: “They have ruined our lives”
Two Spanish youths who do not know each other are involved in a false murder case after their photographs were circulated last Saturday.
Two men, aged 20 and 29, were accused of murdering 83-year-old Rosario Sánchez in Burgos on Tuesday. The victims were reportedly identified through false information spread on social media by accounts linked to far-right groups Nucleo Nacional and Revuelta, a youth organization associated with Vox. The misinformation was widely shared, generating hundreds of thousands of views and mass forwards on WhatsApp. Some accounts continue to spread the false information today.
