48 year old British woman, M.C., who is alleged to have stabbed her 57 year old husband, also British, to death.

EFE news agency reports that the alleged aggressor told the police that she was a victim of domestic violence from her husband, C.D., although no complaints for that have been placed in Spain. Spanish police are now asking British colleagues to see if there is any record of abuse in Sunderland, where the couple came from.
