The man accused of repeatedly hitting and threatening his ex-partner in Playa Honda has confessed to the events and will assume three years in prison for the injuries caused, as well as 60 days of community service for intimidating her. 

J.A.N, who has testified remotely, has reached an agreement with the Public Prosecutor's Office and has reduced his prison sentence from six to three years. In addition, the prohibition of approaching within 300 meters of the victim, her home and any other place frequented by her is maintained for a period of seven years. Also, he must be controlled by a GPS telematic device. 

The events date back to December 15, 2022, when J.A.N. approached a place where his ex-wife was with a friend and gave her several blows and kicks while shouting "whore" and "nymphomaniac". The victim had to undergo surgery and dental treatment. 

The confessed perpetrator of the crimes of injury and continued threats has agreed to compensate her with 2,200 euros for damages and 2,800 euros for consequences. In addition, he has been in provisional prison since December 20, 2022.

Among the threats he made to his ex-partner, phrases such as: "You're going to regret it, leave but leave now, otherwise you'll end up leaving here with a broken face" or "you're a son of a bitch, I'm going to show my mother these messages so she knows what kind of person you are" have been reflected by the Public Prosecutor's Office.
