Police have arrested the victim's ex-partner as the suspected perpetrator of the crime, which could be another case of gender-based violence and would be the fourth femicide in Spain this week, following the double murder of a woman and her daughter on Tuesday in Xilxes (Plana Baixa) and the murder of a nurse at her workplace on Monday in Benicàs; both in the province of Castellón. After the crime, the man went to a National Police patrol and confessed to killing his ex-partner, according to police sources cited by EFE. When officers arrived at the woman's home, they found her dead in a bedroom, lying on the bed with clear signs of strangulation. The victim had been dead for several hours. The woman had two children, who were not the detainee's. It is not yet known whether there were prior reports of domestic violence within the couple, and the Spanish government's Delegation against Gender Violence is gathering information about Wednesday's murder in Madrid. So far, it has been reported that the murder took place on López Hoyos Street in the capital.</p>]]></description>

However, initially it didn't appear to be a homicide: everything pointed to suicide.</p>]]></description>

It was a short walk, three blocks. Suddenly, she noticed a strange presence. "Someone was chasing me," describes Junkal, a 22-year-old girl. It was a man who, just as she entered the doorway of her house, lunged at her and intimidated her. "It didn't go any further," she says. However, she experienced it as an assault that she never reported. Like her, it is estimated that only two out of ten women report the acts of gender-based violence they suffer. But reports are increasing exponentially: since 2012, sexual violence has increased by 700% and gender-based harassment by 275%. And the big question is whether behind this isn't just greater awareness and penal changes that have favored it: "It's also worth asking whether the phenomenon is increasing," says Mossos d'Esquadra police commissioner Marta Fernández.</p>]]></description>
