Police on the Canary Islands have arrested a nurse who is accused of killing his girlfriend by poison. She died on July 11 on Gran Canaria, after being admitted to hospital with an intoxication. She had not, however, placed any official complaints about her partner.

The Government Sub Delegate for the Canaries, Vicente Oliva, thinks it could be another case of domestic violence, but noted that reporting restrictions have been introduced.

The 32 year old victim worked as a ATS assistant in the same hospital as her boyfriend, the Dr. Negrin, and had been admitted there some days before she died. Family and friends think that she was being slowly poisoned.
