Murder of Diana Quer

In December 2017, 41-year-old José Abuín, aka "El Chicle", confessed to the murder of Quer while being interrogated for an attack on another woman, and revealed the location of the body.

"El Chicle" was found guilty on 17 December 2019 of aggravated murder, kidnapping and sexual assault, and received life imprisonment.

[3] Diana María Quer López-Pinel[4] (born 12 April 1998)[5] was from Pozuelo de Alarcón in the Community of Madrid and was on holiday with her mother and sister.

Among these was the perpetrator José Enrique Abuín Gey alias "El Chicle" ("The Chewing Gum"), who had a previous conviction for cocaine dealing.

[10] El Chicle was held at the A Lama and Teixeiro prisons in Galicia, but was moved to Villahierro near León to avoid reprisals from former associates and rivals from the cocaine trade.

[2][12] One cited example was the Espejo Público ("Public Mirror") programme on Antena 3, which reported that Quer's social media account was still active and speculated as to why.

[2] The same programme was condemned by Quer's family in October 2019 for broadcasting an alleged "last photograph" of the murder victim; the relatives believed that it was implying that her clothing was responsible for her death.
