The City Councilhas called a rally for this Friday at 7:00 p.m. in Lege Zaharren Plaza.
On Wednesday, the Ertzaintza arrested a 47-year-old man accused of the murder of a 53-year-old woman. The Department of Safety and Security reported that the officers had received news of the woman's death the previous night and opened an investigation that led to the arrest of the suspect.
In this way, it is being investigated whether it would be a crime against a partner or ex-partner that the law considers to be gender-based violence, since the relationship between the two is unclear, but the institutions have implemented protocols on male violence.
Zarautz City Council has held an urgent Board of Spokespersons, which has adopted an institutional declaration describing what happened as a "macho murder" in which the City Council denounces "all expressions of male violence against women" and expresses its "strongest condemnation and deepest indignation"at the events.
The City Council has also "conveyed its full support and solidarity to the relatives of the victim and their immediate surroundings" and has provided specialized services for the care and protection of male violence.
The City Council reiterates its commitment to continue working "for a fairer and more egalitarian society" and calls on citizens to "take an active stand in the face of any manifestation of violence against women, not accepting it, not remaining silent and giving full support to those who suffer it".
Emakundehas also condemned the murder and expressed support for the victim's family and close friends. The organization has activated the protocol envisaged for these cases and will participate in the rally convened in the village.
In the same vein, the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa has expressed its "pain and solidarity" with the victims' relatives and called for a concentration of workers in the workplaces at noon. Eudel, the Association of Basque Municipalities, has also joined in the reproaches and recalled that "deaths only show part of the problem of violence against women".
