MADRID, October 17 (RIA Novosti) - The body of a Russian woman has been found in an apartment in Madrid, where she lived with her common-law husband, a police spokesman said Friday.
"The young woman died of stab wounds," the source said, adding that she was killed three or four days ago, apparently in a domestic dispute.
Police said the woman had told relatives that she wanted to return to Russia as she was frequently beaten by her partner.
Meanwhile, another Russian woman has been admitted to a hospital in the town of Torrecardenas, southeast Spain, in serious condition after she jumped from a fourth-floor window in an attempt to escape a beating from her partner and his father.
