A Police Judiciary (PJ) source indicated that the suspect, arrested today by the criminal investigation police, appeared for his first judicial interrogation at the Évora Court.
The PJ explained in a statement that the man was detained by the Évora Local Criminal Investigation Unit (ULIC) for these four crimes committed against his former partner.
“The suspect, after leaving the house, threatened his ex-partner with death and went on to set fire to her vehicle, destroying it completely,” the PJ note reads.
A police source revealed that the incidents occurred in the city of Évora, indicating that the latest occurrence related to this case was recorded last Friday around 10:30 PM, when the victim’s vehicle was set on fire.
The ex-partner of the suspect is 34 years old, the same source specified.
The man was already indicted for several domestic violence crimes committed in recent years, according to the PJ in the statement.
