Firefighters in Valladolid discovered the body of a woman showing signs of violence while extinguishing a fire in the Pajarillos neighborhood.
The incident occurred around 8:00 AM on Monday, prompting an immediate response from emergency services.
The National Police have launched an investigation to determine the cause of the fire and the woman's death, with a potential link to gender-based violence being considered.
The Government's Delegation against Gender Violence is gathering information to confirm if this is a case of femicide.
