Spanish Interior Minister José Barrionuevo blamed the Islamic Jihad Organization, which claimed responsibility for the blast, for the bombing.[2] However, the case was closed in 1987 due to a lack of arrests.
In 2005, Spain requested the alleged Al-Qaeda operative and writer Mustafa Setmariam Nasar's extradition from Pakistan for his role in the bombing.[3]
