At around 8.30 p.m.yesterday, Wednesday, the Ertzaintza helicopter located the body of the man whohad been missing since Tuesday in the Gorbea, located in an area of difficult access, where early indications indicate that the mountaineer had fallen.

The search operation has lasted longer than expected, as the judge did not authorize the geolocation of the missing person's mobile phone. The decision to deny this measure has caused anger among relatives, including the search device itself, who were searching Gorbeia Park early in the morning to locate the man.

The family explained to the Ertzaintza that the missing person's mobile phone was still giving the signal, but no one was answering the calls. However, in order to geolocate the device, a judge's authorization was required, which was denied.

Sources from the device have indicated that in similar cases earlier, the use of this resource has been permitted, which greatly facilitates the tracing work. This time, the judge's decision was received at around 3 p.m., but it was negative, which has made it difficult for the search team to work, as they were unable to limit the area according to the terminal signal.
