Key Points

  • Defence attorneys claim no concrete proof exists for central drug purchase allegations.
  • Prosecutors criticised for ignoring context and highlighting only witness contradictions.
  • Outburst occurred during ongoing testimonies in Andorra's Operació Llops trial.
  • Defence vows to challenge prosecution's selective emphasis; trial continues.

Lawyers defending suspects in the Operació Llops trial erupted in criticism on the third day of proceedings, accusing prosecutors of undue interference and a lack of objective evidence.

Defence attorneys argued that no concrete proof exists to substantiate claims of drug purchases central to the case. They expressed frustration that the prosecution focused solely on highlighting contradictions in witness testimonies, while ignoring broader context.

The outburst came amid ongoing testimony in the high-profile trial, which stems from Operació Llops—a major police operation targeting alleged organised crime networks in Andorra. Details on specific witnesses or new evidence presented that day remain limited, as the full session report is protected.

No further developments or judicial responses to the lawyers' objections were immediately available. The trial continues, with defence teams vowing to challenge what they describe as selective emphasis by prosecutors.
