Answer

What happens in Mallorca when someone is accused of attempted murder but the investigation is still ongoing?

In Mallorca, an accusation does not mean guilt has been established. The presumption of innocence still applies while police, prosecutors and the court review the medical evidence, witness statements and any forensic findings. Public attention can be intense, especially in Palma, but the case must still be assessed through proper legal procedure.
