Yalcin told a Spanish investigating judge Friday that he was an enthusiast of motorized paragliding and wished to teach his two Chechen associates how to fly them.
Authorities say they believe Yalcin had been the logistics man of the group, and had been living legally in Spain where he worked for a construction company in Gibraltar.
