Dr. Alexander Aslani, a prominent plastic surgeon in Marbella, Spain, was killed by a masked gunman at his clinic on October 1. The 57-year-old physician had previoulsy alerted authorities to death threats before the attack.
The Point-Blank Execution at Cirumed Clinic
The assassination of Dr.. Alexander Aslani took place within the walls of the Cirumed Clinic, where the surgeon served as founder and medical director. According to the Daily Mail, a masked hitman entered the facility and shot Dr. Aslani four times while he was in his office. The attack occurred in the presence of his staff, patients, and his wife, Jeannine, who operated a beauty salon adjacent to the clinic.
Police sources reported that the final bullet was fired directly into the face of Dr. Aslani at point-blank range. This level of precision and brutality suggests a targeted execution rather than a random act of violence,pointing toward a premeditated attempt to silence or punish the physician.
From Qatari Royals to a £15,000-a-year Yacht Berth
Dr. Alexander Aslani maintained a lifestyle that mirrored the luxury of the Costa del Sol, driving a grey Ferrari and residing in a five-bedroom villa in the Mijas Costa foothills. His professional reach was global, attracting patients from over 40 countries, including high-profile figures such as reality TV stars Chloe Sims and Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace, as well as members of the Qatari royal family.
The surgeon was particularly renowned for a specialized procedure known as the 'super-charged Brazilian butt lift.' As reported by the Daily Mail, Dr.. Aslani's wealth was evident in his leisure pursuits, including a 40ft yacht moored in Puerto Banus in a berth costing £15,000 annually. This high-visibility lifestyle, however, often comes with heightened risks in the competitive and often litigious world of celebrity plastic surgery.
The Brussels Conference Warnings and Police Reports
Days before his death, Dr. Alexander Aslani expressed deep concerns regarding his personal safety. While attending a plastic surgery conference in Brussels, the German-born surgeon privately confided in a Middle Eastern colleague that he feared for his life. Despite his public appearance of being relaxed and knowledgeable during his address to delegates, he was reportedly unnerved by ongoing threats.
The fear was not unfounded;Dr. Aslani had previously alerted Spanish police to death threats from a disgruntled client. In an attempt to protect his family, he had increased security measures at his home in the village of Majadilla del Muerto, located approximately 30 minutes from his Marbella practice. Despite these precautions, the surgeon did not have a bodyguard accompanying him during his trip to Belgium.
Who is the Disgruntled Patient Behind the Mask?
A central question remaining in the investigation is the identity of the individual who hired the hitman. Police sources mentioned in the Daily Mail report suggest the murder may have been a form of "chilling revenge" orchestrated by a patient unhappy with their surgical results. However, the specific idenitty of this patient has not been released to the public.
Further ambiguity surrounds the timeline of the threats.. While Dr. Aslani was planning a trip to Karachi to address a conference—a trip he was coordinating with Pakistan-based surgeon Dr . Fahad Mirza—it remains unclear if the threats were linked to his international dealings or a localized dispute in Spain. The investigation now focuses on whether the "disgruntled client" mentioned in police reports is the same person responsible for the October 1 assassination.
