With one month to go before the trial begins against Jaime BH, alleged perpetrator of the death of Sara, 26, in a house on El Saltadero street, in San Isidro (Granadilla de Abona), the victim’s mother, Asun, has directed a letter to DIARY OF NOTICESwho trusts that it will reach the Ministry of Equalityin which he asks that crimes like the one that cost his daughter’s life be judged as murders and not as homicides.

Sara, who lived with her grandmother, found her death in the early hours of November 25, 2019 in her own room after being attacked with a knife at the hands, allegedly, of the 29-year-old with whom she had started a relationship after meet him months before on the Internet.

“The subject had left the house, returned in the middle of the night when she was sleeping, locked himself in the room and murdered her, without any opportunity to defend himself or give time for the emergency services to arrive, as in most cases. of gender violence, in absolute and total defenselessness”, explains Asun in the letter.

The victim’s mother recalls that the prosecutor is requesting a sentence for intentional homicide, while both the family’s lawyer and the popular defense attorney, headed by the Equality Department of the Government of the Canary Islands, are requesting a sentence for murder.

“As the mother of a victim of gender-based violence, I cannot understand that families today have to fight in court for these subjects to be convicted of murder,” says Asun.

“We are talking about subjects who, in most cases, after years of physical and psychological abuse, when these women, with great difficulty, begin to try to rebuild their lives, they are watched, harassed, controlled and, in the end, moment of greatest defenselessness, they are murdered. After this, we see that, in most cases, these subjects come to court accused of homicide, “continues the letter from Sara’s mother.

In addition, it claims that “all murders due to gender violence are equivalent to the Anti-Terrorism Law” and insists, at the end of the letter, that the sentences be for murder. “I ask that there not be a single sentence of intentional homicide: they are murders,” he concludes.

The fatal attack on Sara occurred at dawn on the World Day against the Elimination of Sexist Violence, which amplified the national resonance of the event. Her death caused great consternation in San Isidro and the City Council of Granadilla de Abona decreed three days of mourning in the municipality. The alleged author of it will sit next May 23 in the dock of the accused.
