“He was savagely assaulted by a score of mad men when he was returning home,” she posted.

“Not content with knocking him down and leaving him unconscious. they were kicking his head for endless minutes,” she added.

The mother has asked for witnesses who were in the area to provide information in order to the identify the attackers.

The owners of the nightclub, the Magma Group, issued a statement which condemned ‘any type of violence’ and wished ‘a speedy recovery to the young man attacked’.

They specified that the aggression ‘did not take place inside or in the direct vicinity of the Magma Room, but on a public road, many metres” from the building.

The Magma Group stressed that they are collaborating ‘actively’ with the Policia Nacional and has made available to them ‘all the technical and human means necessary to help identify those responsible’.

They added that it is so far ‘unknown whether or not they were previously in our premises’.
