Venezuelan was murdered in Spain by his partner’s ex-boyfriend

Venezuelan was murdered in Spain by his partner's ex-boyfriend

a citizen Spanish identified as Víctor AI was sentenced by the Superior Court of Justice of Catalonia (TSJC) to 21 years in prison for murdering a Venezuelan with 118 stab wounds and for cutting off his genitals.

“In addition to the prison sentence, the court confirms that the convicted person must compensate the victim’s partner with 187,000 euros and his family, who resides in Venezuela, with 119,000 euros,” says a press release from The world.

The tragedy occurred on June 1, 2019 when the condemned man went to a bar near his ex-girlfriend’s home in an area near the Rodalies de Santa Maria de Montcada i Reixac station, in Barcelona, Spain.

The murderer waited for his ex-girlfriend to leave the place along with his current partner, with whom he had just resumed the relationship after having interrupted it for a few months since he was in Venezuela.

When he saw them, the sentenced man took out a knife from a backpack and attacked the victim who stood in his way to avoid assaulting the woman.

It was then that he stabbed him repeatedly and when he fell to the ground he sat on top of him so that he could not defend himself and caused 118 wounds to his head, the rest of his body and cut his genitals. The Venezuelan died shortly after from these injuries.

He suffered from schizophrenia

In the trial held last November at the Barcelona Court, the convicted person stated that he suffered from schizophreniathat she was not taking medication and that her ex-partner told her that the victim “mistreated” her and that is why she began to hear some “inner voices” telling her to kill him.

However, he explained that when he went to meet him he only wanted to frighten him, but that they fought and that in the scuffle they fell to the ground and he took the opportunity to stab him with the knife.

“There were many problems, the voices took over me and I ended up killing him,” he declared in court and remarked that the voices “bothered me” and that is why he stabbed the victim with the knife, believing that he was doing “what he had to do.”

In this sense, several witnesses explained that the condemned man began to shout “stalker” and “you deserve it as a rapist” while he stabbed him and that when he finished he raised his fingers in victory.

Shortly after murdering the victim, the condemned man dropped the knife and was restrained by some pedestrians who had watched the scene until the Mossos arrived.

«I felt very bad because the truth is that I do not dedicate myself to killing people. She is the first person I have ever killed and I don’t want to do it again,” she explained.

He had threatened his ex-partner

The witnesses testified at the trial that the convicted man had threatened the couple a few days before and that the woman assured that she would notify the police.

In addition, they pointed out that he had been in the area on previous occasions spying on the couple and even asked about her in shops in the area.

Now, the court has confirmed the conviction and he must remain in prison for this murder.
