Ya Basta IX
Garrote
Salvador Puig Antich, the young Catalan anarchist and Heinz Ches, murdered by this method in March 2, 1974, under Franco’s dictatorial regime.
These were the last garrotings in Spain and in the world.
Method of execution used in Spain and some ex-spanish colonies.
Portugal used it too until the Abolition in 1867, the last execution here took place in 1846.
Spain abolished death penalty for all offences in 1995.
I will never forget too the executions of Angel Otaegui Echevarria and Juan Paredes Manot, Basques militants and other 3 members of FRAP by firing squad in September 1975.
These were the last executions in Spain.
