An alarming incident in the city
Valencia has recently witnessed a case of domestic violence that has raised concern among the community. A 31-year-old man has been arrested on the accusation of introducing ammonia into a water bottle, which he offered to his 35-year-old partner, causing severe internal injuries.
Details of the incident
The events took place on March 21, while the couple was traveling by car with two minors, one of whom is the son of the victim. The woman, who felt thirsty, asked the man to give him a little water. He, with the intention of Malevola, passed a bottle containing a dangerous substance, causing an immediate reaction.
The consequences of consumption
After drinking from the bottle, the victim experienced an intense burning sensation in his throat, which led him to try to vomit. Despite his efforts, the severity of poisoning required to be urgently admitted to Doctor Peset Hospital, where he was subjected to an induced coma for several days in the Intensive Care Unit.
Man is trying to defend
Despite the apparent concern he showed by his partner’s state while at the hospital, police investigations revealed that the event had been premeditated. The defendant, during his interrogation, argued that he did not know what had happened and that the woman had drunk from one of the two bottles in the vehicle. According to him, one contained water and the other ammonia, which he used to clean the car.
Key testament
Despite his version, the victim was able to identify the defendant as the person in charge of his poisoning, thus reinforcing the suspicions of the authorities. This led the National Police to deepen the case, revealing that the defendant had previously been involved in incidents of domestic violence.
Legal and future implications
The Court of Violence over the woman number 4 of Valencia has decided to leave the defendant on a temporary release, imposing a 200-meter-removal order of the victim for 30 days. This incident has highlighted the need for a more forceful response to the cases of gender -based violence, a problem that continues to affect many people in today’s society.
