This Thursday, a man caused severe injuries to his 41 -year -old spouse on Thursday, endangering his days by burning her voluntarily. The facts took place in Houthalen-Helchteren, in Limburg. The 35 -year -old man then fled. The Limburg prosecutor’s office seized an investigating judge for attempted assassination.
The facts took place Thursday around 2:30 p.m. A fire in the Kazernelaan, in Houthalen-Helchteren, was reported to the firefighters. On the spot, the fire men discovered a seriously burned woman. She was taken to the center of the Gallows Brûlés de Louvain to be treated. Friday, his vital prognosis was still committed.
At the time of the facts, five children, aged 2 to 15, were present in the house. In shock, they were taken care of by assistance to victims. They were then able to go to relatives. The Limburg prosecutor appointed a medical examiner and brought in the forensic laboratory to the scene. An instruction was opened for attempted assassination.
This Friday, we learn via our colleagues from the Nieuwsblad that the suspect is a man with a heavy legal past who was on penitentiary leave. Liberation under conditions probably granted due to prison overcrowding in our country. The prosecution has opened an investigation to determine the reasons for this leave.
According to neighbors, contacted by VTM Nieuws, the police were regularly called on the spot for acts of family violence. Agents had also visited the facts in the morning of the facts.
