The 74-year-old man who confessed this Monday to having killed a 64-year-old woman in Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz, and having thrown her dismembered body into an agricultural irrigation well in the Cortijo de Ducha, enters, provisionally, communicated and without bail, in the Puerto 2 penitentiary center by order of the Investigating Court number 4 of the city of Cádiz.
The case is being investigated as a homicide, not as a sexist crime, despite the fact that the attacker has confessed that he had sporadic relations with the victim.
The identity of the deceased has yet to be determined by the Cádiz Institute of Legal Medicine, where an autopsy is being performed, although everything indicates that it could be an Iranian woman whose disappearance dates back to July of this year, when she was lost. the track upon leaving the municipal shelter where he lived.
The detainee, who already confessed to the facts before the Police when he was arrested after the discovery of the body, has given a statement before the duty judge, who will be inhibited in favor of the Investigating Court number 1 of Jerez, as reported by the TSJA.
The alleged murderer had previously served a 15-year prison sentence for hitting his wife over the head “due to a fit”, after he got upset because she “wouldn’t stop smoking and drinking”. After the attack, he finished her off with an axe, dismembered her and threw the remains of her body, wrapped in plastic, into a well in the north of Jerez, according to what his lawyer told the newspaper El País.
It was this Sunday when the man was arrested after the Police followed him up, which ended up leading them to the well where they found the body at a great depth.
It is still at the expense of the forensic report both to find out how the woman died as well as to determine if the body corresponds to the Iranian woman who disappeared in the city after ending a sentimental relationship with another man.
The Police then began their search on suspicion that he had disappeared “involuntarily, forcibly and at risk to his life.”
