A Spanish couple faces murder charges after Google Street View images seemingly show the man transporting a body. Police investigation led to the discovery of a man's torso, confirming the victim's fate.
A Spanish couple has been arrested on suspicion of murder after Google Street View cameras appear to have caught the man loading a body into the boot of his car. Police renewed their investigation into the disappearance of a Cuban man in the tiny hamlet of Tajueco after Google published the image two months ago. Last week, they found a male torso in a nearby cemetery and confirmed it belonged to the missing man, named only by his initials, JPLO.

The suspect, Manuel Isla Gallardo, a 48-year-old known by the 56 residents of Tajueco as “The Wolf”, has been arrested alongside his former partner. In one of the images released by Google, a man is seen loading a large bundle wrapped in a white sheet into the back of his maroon Rover car. In an earlier image captured by the camera on the Google Street View car, the same man can be seen pushing a white bundle towards his vehicle in a wheelbarrow. The Street View images were published almost one year after the Cuban was reported missing from his home in the Spanish city of Soria. A cousin of the victim reported him missing in November 2023 after he received strange text messages in which the victim said he had met a woman and would not be using the same mobile number anymore as he was leaving the country.The cousin told police officers he knew immediately that the messages were not written by the missing man as they were completely out of character. Within weeks of the Google pictures going live, the police arrested the two suspects, who have been remanded in custody on suspicion of kidnapping, failure to report a missing person and murde
