The girl was murdered by her father, who later took his own life

Benidorm observes a minute of silence in condemnation of the murder of a 13-year-old girl in Bilbao

Benidorm guarda un minuto de silencio en repulsa por el asesinato de una menor de 13 años en Bilbao

Benidorm City Council today expressed its condemnation of the latest crime of vicarious violence committed against a 13-year-old minor, murdered in Bilbao last Friday, May 30th. Mayor Toni Pérez and Councillor for Equality Ángela Zaragozí presided over the silent demonstration held at noon in Plaza Sants Reyes de España.

According to the investigation conducted by authorities, the minor was murdered early Friday morning at the family home by her father, who subsequently took his own life. With the confirmation of this case, there have now been two minors murdered in the context of gender-based violence so far this year and 64 since 2013.

The Department of Equality reminds us that Benidorm City Council has staff specialised in violence against women to provide free counselling to any woman who feels threatened. They also reiterate that victims can access the free 016 hotline, which leaves no trace on their phone bill, although it is advisable to delete it from their cell phone call logs.

This service is available 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and in 52 languages.
Similarly, in an emergency, you can call 112 or the emergency numbers of the National Police (091) and the Civil Guard (062). If a call is not possible and a dangerous situation arises, you can use the ALERTCOPS app, which will send an alert signal with geolocation to the police. All of these assistance methods can be activated by the victim and also by anyone who knows or suspects a case of gender-based violence. It is a duty of all society.
