The defendant has reached an agreement on his conviction for the death of Koldo Martinez in September 2021, closing the last pending case.
Nelson David Morenohas been sentenced to 19 years in prison for the murderof Koldo Martinez, a militant of the Plural Left and councillor of Elkarrekin Berango, who died on 13 September 2021. The conviction is the result of an agreement between the parties which, for the first time, includes the application of the aggravating circumstance of discrimination in one of the cases against Moreno.
Initially, the death of Martinez was considered natural, but the Ertzaintza opened an investigation in 2022 to determine whether it was related to the crimes attributed to Moreno in Bilbao. The councilman lived in a flat in the capital city and was registered by agents in May of that year as part of the investigations.
