A 27-year-old woman was found dead with stab wounds on 31 July 2026 in a flat in the Perines district of Santander, in Cantabria. Her 39-year-old partner called the police, confessed to the attack and was arrested the same day on suspicion of her killing. The couple had a child together and no previous complaints had been filed against him, and she was not registered in the Viogén system for monitoring victims of domestic abuse. On Monday 3 August 2026 he appeared before the court, which ordered him remanded in custody pending trial. The Spanish Ministry of Equality confirmed the killing as a case of gender-based violence. It was the thirty-third such killing recorded in Spain in 2026, and the 1,374th since records began in 2003.
