The Polícia Judiciária (PJ) is investigating the case of a 57-year-old woman found dead today at her doorstep in Ferreiros, Amares, a source from the force reported.
All possibilities remain under consideration, according to the source.
The woman appeared to have suffered several stab wounds, though it is not yet clear if these were self-inflicted or caused by another individual.
The victim had been sentenced in February by the Braga Court to a suspended prison term of four and a half years for attempting to kill her husband by first sedating him and then attacking him with scissors and a knife.
She intended for herself and her husband to die together.
The plan involved killing her husband and then taking her own life.
The events date back to March 24, 2024, at the couple’s residence.
