Today it is 25 years since ETA murdered the workers of Elektra in San Sebastian Josu Leonet and José Ángel Santos
25 years ago and one day today, on 22 February, ETA killed two workers in San Sebastian, Josu Leonet and Jose Angel Santos, both workers at the Elektra factory, who were on their way to work when they were hit by a car bomb detonated near the Martutene railway station.
Leonet, born Tolosarra and 31 years old, and José Ángel Santos, 40, of Galician origin, died there; six others were injured in the attack, including Dubreuil himself.
