Jesus Owono Faces Legal Action After De Miguel's Death

FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono is under investigation for possible criminal negligence following the death of CD Tenerife forward Jesús de Miguel Alameda during a match. Spanish authorities are considering whether the fatal collision on the pitch amounts to criminal negligence, which could lead to a prison sentence of one to four years if Owono is found to have acted with gross negligence.
The investigation will review match footage to assess the circumstances of the collision, including Owono's movement and whether the incident could have been avoided. A red card issued to Owono during the match does not carry legal significance in this context.
Prosecutors must establish that Owono's actions met the legal threshold for negligence and that a direct causal link exists between his conduct and the death. If deemed a tragic accident within accepted boundaries, he may not face criminal charges.
The outcome will depend on evidence, including medical findings and expert testimony.
