UPV experts will participate in the working group to investigate Unamuno's death
A group of professors from various UPV departments will promote an initiative to promote interdisciplinary research at the University of Salamanca (USAL) with the aim of clarifying the death of Unamuno, in which, among others, Professor of Literature Jon Kortazar, Professor of Applied Economics Jon Bernat Zubiri and Professor of Criminal Law Jon Mirena will participate.
"The fact that different signs of crime have appeared around Unamuno's death, both in his home and in strange circumstances, calls on the UPV to participate in the investigation that the USAL has undertaken. Unamuno did not point to any health problems and said on several occasions that he was threatened with death and wanted to escape being under house arrest," said David Hoyos and Jon Bernat, coordinators of the Zubiri support group.
The rector of the University of the Basque Country, Joxerramon Bengoetxea, has stressed "the willingness and institutional commitment of the UPV to support research and promote its development".
"Being under house arrest, threats from the authorities of the regime, suspicious circumstances surrounding the death, the appropriation of the body by the Falangists and the immediate organization of the funeral are facts that arouse suspicion," said Francisco Javier de Santiago, director of the USAL Master of Criminal Conduct, and psycholinguist María Montfragüe.
