Jorge Agüero Lafora participated in an important trial at the Audiencia Nacional, defending the only accused of a terrorist murder crime. The defense argued that the client was not involved in the crime, and that the Spanish court did not have jurisdiction as the crime was committed abroad and had no connection to the Spanish state. Additionally, it was argued that the interpretation of the terrorist crime used in the case was against the principle of legality.
The system of appeals in Spanish criminal procedure is structured around the possibility of reviewing decisions issued by Investigating Courts through an appeal before the Provincial Courts. The purpose of this process is to ensure the correct application of the law, safeguard the right to effective judicial protection, and correct potential errors in the assessment of evidence or legal reasoning. However, such review is limited by the principles of immediacy, orality, and contradiction that govern criminal proceedings.
Article 20.4 of the Spanish Criminal Code governs self‑defence, requiring (1) an unlawful attack, (2) the rational necessity of the means employed, and (3) absence of sufficient provocation. Jurisprudence demands rationality in the defensive means and excludes self‑defence where there is excessive force or duration of the response. In the Torrejón case, an off‑duty police officer asphyxiated a subdued thief. The conduct was excessive and unjustified, thereby precluding the application of self‑defence. Spanish criminal law prioritizes life over property and restricts defensive violence.
