Everything indicates that the father murdered his two children and then committed suicide, in a small apartment in Barcelona. The lifeless bodies of the three were found yesterday Monday by the Mossos d'Esquadra in an apartment in the Horta neighborhood of the Catalan capital, after the mother reported that her ex-partner had not taken the children to her, after the period of custody. Christmas vacation.
The man, 53 years old and of Spanish nationality, had been living alone in a ground floor for three years, after separating from his wife, with whom he had two children, a boy and a girl aged 7 and 10. The father also did not take the children to school, which alerted her mother, who went to her ex-partner's apartment to look for them. Nobody opened the door for him. The Mossos are working with the hypothesis that it would be a case of vicarious violence. When the police arrived at the property, it emitted a strong gas explosion. There was no accidental leak.
The investigation indicates that the father turned on the gas with the aim of murdering his children to harm the mother, from whom he had separated. The 26th investigative court of Barcelona, acting as the incident duty court, has been in charge of investigating the case. Judicial sources have confirmed that there were no complaints of violence between the father and mother of the children.
