[5] To this end, they planned on assassinating the then Prime Minister, President Felipe González; first Vice President Alfonso Guerra; Minister of Defense Narcís Serra; and the heads of the military high command, Admirals Ángel Liberal Lucini and Guillermo Salas Cardenal, and Lieutenant Generals José María Sáenz de Tejada and José Santos Peralba.
These assassinations were to be carried out by detonating one or more bombs placed under the royal box during the Armed Forces Day military parade, which would be held on 2 June 1985 in the city of A Coruña.
[2] The organizers involved in the plot had planned to rent a building with a basement next to the balcony where the targets would be seated and dig a tunnel in which they would place more than 100 kilos of powerful explosives.
These would have been provided by an employee of a construction company, since the use of explosive material coming from the armed forces would have uncovered the military conspiracy.
[1] Suspicious visits among the military members, some of whom were in prison, and the collaboration of one of the conspirators with intelligence services helped to detect and stop the coup.
