The Prosecutor's Office rejects Julio Iglesias' appearance in the investigation opened against him for alleged assault and trafficking

  • On January 5, the Spanish Public Prosecutor's Office opened a pre‑procedural investigation after two former employees accused Julio Iglesias of sexual assault, harassment and human trafficking.
  • Investigative reporting by elDiario.es and Univisión found an alleged atmosphere of control, harassment and constant intimidation at Iglesias' mansions in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, and Lyford Cay, Bahamas.
  • The complaint itself states Julio Iglesias as the principal alleged perpetrator, two senior household employees as accomplices, and the younger complainant was age 22 at the time.
  • Deputy Prosecutor Marta Durantez said Julio Iglesias is not under investigation and cannot access the file, while Women's Link Worldwide confirmed prosecutors will protect statements from the two women and Iglesias denied the claims on social media last Friday.
  • The probe positions Spain's National Court to consider opening criminal proceedings, as prosecutors study jurisdiction and evidence linked to Julio Iglesias' 'Bermuda Triangle' of Caribbean mansions.
