The former mayor of Marbella already gave what was thought to be his last interview a couple of weeks ago, on this same programme. It was broadcast last Friday 13 September, just two days before he was admitted to a Marbella hospital and never came out alive again.

Regarding the posthumous interview, Santi Acosta explained on Tuesday: “It is an open-hearted interview.” And he added: “The first thing he tells us is that he could have avoided prison and continued being mayor of Marbella.”the communicator declared to TardeAR from the funeral home where the remains of Isabel Pantoja’s ex-boyfriend were laid to rest, and who was cremated this Wednesday morning.

“Julian also tells us how much money his relationship with Isabel Pantoja cost him”Acosta announced. This interview was recorded on September 3. “When someone who knows they are going to die talks to you, it’s brutal”. And he added: “You will understand why he did not speak out earlier so as not to incriminate certain people more than necessary.”

In that same connection with the presenter, Isabel Rábago questioned him: “There is a legal reality. How different is the reality that he told you in that interview from the legal reality that we all know by heart?”And the journalist, who covered the corruption scandal in the city of Malaga and does not intend to “whitewash the image of any corrupt person”, continued: “Is there a version B that hasn’t been told because he couldn’t at the time? Has it surprised you? As for me, who knows Malaya by heart, am I going to be surprised or am I going to doubt it?”.

Acosta said: “You will understand why he has done so many things and why he has not spoken out before to incriminate more people than necessary. But he is absolutely sincere and admits his crimes.”
