18-Year-Old Swedish National Arrested over Fatal Shooting of Marbella Plastic Surgeon

Police say the suspect is being held in connection with the fatal shooting of a prominent plastic surgeon inside his clinic.

  • On Thursday, police arrested an 18-year-old Swedish national in connection with the murder of Dr. Alexander Aslani, a renowned plastic surgeon shot dead inside his Marbella clinic on Wednesday evening.
  • Shortly before 6 p.m. Wednesday, a hooded gunman entered the Cirumed Clinic and shot Aslani multiple times in the head before fleeing on a motorbike, leaving paramedics unable to save him.
  • The 57-year-old German-born surgeon performed over 15,000 operations during his 25-year career, with nearly 70% of his clients from Britain, making him a prominent figure in elite cosmetic surgery.
  • Police sources told Spanish media that "many possibilities" are being weighed, including revenge by a disgruntled client, after initially ruling out organized crime links.
  • The killing occurs as the Interior Ministry expands its Plan Costa del Sol crackdown, launched in 2024 to combat rising violence in Marbella, which has yielded 1,600 arrests so far.
