The death of Antonio Tejero marks the disappearance of the actor during the attempted coup d’état on 23 February 1981, a chapter of the Transition that has gained relevance due to the Government’s decision to make public the secret documents related to the uprising, which has allowed for a better understanding of his role in those events. The transcript of the phone conversation he had with Juan García Carrés and his wife from inside the Congress, through an intercepted line, has been one of the aspects discussed following the declassification, particularly due to the language used during those moments that were recorded in history.
