Guillem Agulló i Salvador

Guillem Agulló i Salvador (Burjassot, 1975 -Montanejos, 1993) was a young Valencian, active member of the independentist political organization Maulets, that was murdered on April 11, 1993.

On April 11, 1993 Guillem Agulló was stabbed on Montanejos, Alto Mijares, by a group of youngsters involved in far right organizations. He died from the injuries. A number of political parties claimed that it was a political murder. With the sole exceptions of People's Party and Valencian Union, the crime was condemned by all Valencian political parties.

The trial was held in Castelló de la Plana on 1995. Amongst the group of defendants, only Pedro Cuevas, who confessed to be the material author of the stabbing, was sentenced to 14 years in jail. The rest were absolved. Pedro Cuevas was released after 4 years in prison, and shortly after he was candidate for the far right political party Alianza Nacional on the 2007 municipal election in Xiva [ [http://www.vilaweb.cat/www/noticia?p_idcmp=2401580 VilaWeb - Crítiques per la presència de l'assassí de Guillem Agulló a les eleccions ] ] [ [http://elsud.org/node/1799 Pedro Cuevas, l'assassí de Guillem Agulló, es presenta a les eleccions | elsud.org ] ] .
