Prosecutors from the Navarre Tribunal Superior de Justicia asked for 18-year prison sentences to be passed against a policeman and his son, who murdered a baker, Ángel Berrueta, in Pamplona (Navarre). On 13 March an argument broke out between Berrueta and the policeman's wife over the authorship of the 11 May bombings in Madrid, (see Statewatch vol 14 no 2). The baker refused to allow the man's wife to stick an "ETA NO" poster in his shop window shortly before he was fatally shot three times (by the policeman) and stabbed (by the policeman's son).
