Adif, the infrastructure manager, has obtained judicial permission to proceed with the reconstruction of the site of the railway accident in Adamuz, Córdoba. However, the case has attracted attention due to concerns over the chain of custody regarding the evidence collected from the accident site. A ruling by Judge Cristina Pastor emphasized the need for Adif to refrain from any actions that might compromise materials that are of interest to the ongoing investigation.

This situation stems from a controversy surrounding the management of evidence after the Adamuz railway accident, which has raised questions about legal protocols and the responsibilities of infrastructure managers in maintaining the integrity of accident sites. Adif's inventory and transfer of wreckage to its facility in Hornachuelos have been called into question, and the judge's directive represents a significant reminder of the judicial oversight necessary in such investigations.

The implications of these criticisms extend beyond the immediate reconstruction efforts, as they highlight the potential for mismanagement of evidence in cases involving public safety and infrastructure. This case may set a precedent for how railway infrastructure accidents are handled legally, ensuring that protocols are in place to protect the integrity of the investigation and the judicial process.
