Woman found dead after fire in Mutxamel had been stabbed

woman whose completely burnt body was found in her house in Mutxamel, Alicante, had been stabbed nine times in what is now looking like another fatal case of domestic violence.

Her 45 year old husband is sedated in the Sant Joan d’Alacant hospital after being treated for smoke inhalation in the fire. He will remain sedated for some time, but is now out of danger despite being found unconscious by firemen after the fire.

The couple were in the process of separation, but were still living in the same flat. The Government Sub-Delegate, Encarna Llinares, has however made it clear that there were not any previous complaints or reported problems. The couple have two children, aged 1 and 5, who were not at home at the time of the fire.

Five minutes silence was held at the doors of the Sub Delegate’s office in Alicante on Wednesday in protest at what has happened.
