Jonathan Andic temporarily stepped down as Mango’s vice-chair after a Spanish court named him a suspect in the investigation into founder Isak Andic’s December 2024 death.
The judge’s writ said Isak Andic’s fall of more than 100 metres near Barcelona may not have been accidental and alleged Jonathan Andic played an active, premeditated role.
Jonathan Andic, 45, denied the accusations in an open letter, calling the case’s public narrative distorted and saying clearing his name would require time and intense effort.
Mango’s board backed him publicly, saying it had full confidence the legal proceedings would be resolved favourably and as swiftly as possible.
The case strikes at the family behind one of Spain’s biggest fashion groups; Jonathan Andic had been named executive vice-president of Mango’s holding company in January 2025, weeks after his father’s death.
Can forensics prove if the Mango founder's 100-meter fall was a tragic accident or a calculated murder by his own son?
