The scene of the stabbing in Cartagena

The woman in her 40's was allegedly stabbed to death by her Moroccan partner

A woman, aged about 45, has died from stab wounds at her home in Cartagena in what is thought to be another fatal example of domestic violence.

It happened in the La Aljorra district, with neighbours calling the police to the scene.

They found the woman on a sofa with two large stab wounds, and the knife on the floor. Emergency services tried to revive her on the journey to hospital, but she was pronounced dead on arrival.

Some two hours later police arrested the woman’s Moroccan partner who was found close to the Plaza de España in Cartagena.
