According to a great niece of the two brothers, Arsenio was tied to a tree and hacked to death with a machete, between 1936 and 1937. ‘They killed him for not betraying his brother,’ she said. The extension of the N-536 road has made it impossible to find his body and so reunite the two brothers in the same cemetery. However, a grave containing the remains of four residents of the nearby village of Priaranza del Bierzo was excavated in this same area in 2009.
