The man arrested for assaulting his wife during a live on TikTok will have to go to trial on February 21 after a quick trial was held this Wednesday in which the Prosecutor's Office requested a year in prison, which the prisoner has not accepted, for for which it has not been possible to pass judgment.
The quick trial has been carried out in the Court of First Instance and Instruction number 3 of Soria, with jurisdiction over Violence against Women. The images went viral last Saturday when the woman performed live with three boys and received a slap. At first, the girl said that the aggression came from her father, but later she explained on TikTok that the one who had given her the smack was her partner.
"I have never received physical or psychological abuse from him, never in my life," the victim had said in another live connection. However, when she was questioned directly, she fell into contradictions: "He has not hit me... He has given me two beatings twice."
On Tuesday morning, the couple appeared at the offices of the Soria Provincial Police Station to communicate that, as a result of that video and because of the scope it was having, they were receiving many threats and insults. In the presence of the young man and after the inquiries of the agents, the Police arrested the man as the alleged perpetrator of the attack.
The victim did not report or request a protection measure for her partner, but she did file a complaint with the Police for "threats and harassment" on networks by other users and the media, a case that has been dismissed by Investigating Court 4.
The man was arrested by the police for the attack. The defendant has accepted her right not to testify and the woman has renounced any type of protection measure, to have legal assistance, and to be recognized by the forensic doctor.
The Court has given his lawyer a period of three days to present a defense brief before the Criminal Court, which now assumes the jurisdiction to hold the trial. The court has denied the restraining order by not appreciating "that there is an objective situation of risk" given that from the moment of the events the couple "has continued to live together". For a protection order to be issued, two requirements must be met: that there be indications of the commission of a crime, which is the case in this case, and that there is an objective situation of risk, which for the moment the judge does not appreciate.
