The

Civil Guard

is investigating the violent assault suffered by the Valencian designer

Francis Montesinos

at his home in Llíria (Valencia) last Sunday.

The secret investigations have already led to the first arrests, as confirmed by the Provincial Command.

The events occurred last Sunday afternoon when, as revealed by the newspaper

Las Provincias

, two hooded men assaulted the chalet in an urbanization of Llíria, where they

threatened and handcuffed the couturier

and a companion.

Montesinos, 71 years old and with coronary problems, suffered an anxiety attack for which he had to be treated at the Lliría Hospital.

The designer filed a complaint with the Civil Guard, which is investigating whether this event may be related to an

extortion attempt

he suffered a month ago, when the Llíria Local Police had to go to the designer's house in the presence of a young man who threatened to broadcast supposedly compromising videos for Montesinos.
