A man has been arrested in Seville on charges of killing his wife with a knife

The detainee is a 21-year-old man accused of killing his wife with a knife this morning.

SEVILLA, 28/09/2025.- Un joven de 21 años ha sido detenido este domingo por su presunta implicación en el asesinato con arma blanca de una mujer nacida en 1997, con la que parece que mantenía una relación sentimental, en el barrio de Sevilla Este de la capital hispalense. La Policía Nacional mantiene abierta una investigación para tratar de esclarecer lo sucedido y si podría tratarse o no de un caso de violencia machista, que "en estos momento es la principal hipótesis", según ha señalado en un audio remitido a los periodistas el subdelegado del Gobierno en Sevilla, Francisco Toscano.

A man was arrested this morning in eastern Seville on charges of killing a woman with a knife, sources from the Spanish National Police have confirmed.

Sources from the Andalusian Emergency Service 112 received a warning about 03:10, when a witness warned them that a woman who had been attacked was "bleeding and asking for help" in a porch on Tigris Street.

Health sources have only been able to confirm the death of the victim and have indicated that this could be a case of gender-based violence.

In addition, health personnel from 061 have informed 112 that the alleged aggressor, a 21-year-old man, has been taken to Virgen Macarena Hospital after self-injured. 

The Spanish police have opened an investigation to determine the causes of the crime and whether this is a case of male violence.
