In Benidorm, a repeat abuser breaks into his ex-‘s home and assaults her

A man was given a total term of two years and three months in jail by the Alicante Provincial Court. The punishment was handed out to a habitual abuser who broke into his ex-partner’s Benidorm home and assaulted her. In order to avoid calling a jury to try a breaking-and-entering case, the defendant came to an agreement whereby he entered a guilty plea to the offences.

The man was incarcerated after receiving multiple convictions for abuse and restraining order violations.

On May 6th of last year, the woman was leaving the grocery while examining her cell phone in the first of the events for which he is currently facing charges. The defendant flung her phone to the ground as he came up behind her. According to the verdict, it is established that the defendant completely disregarded the restraining order that forbade him from approaching the victim.

On May 8th, two days later, the defendant jumped through the living room window to enter the victim’s house. “If you’re not for me, you’re for no one,” he said, grabbing the victim by the hair and dragging her into the living room. He then kicked and punched her, threatening her with a screwdriver and screaming that she had sent him to jail and that he was going to kill her first, then kill himself.

During a High Court hearing this week, the man entered a guilty plea.

Alicante is now part of TUI’s city break package

With the addition of Alicante and Salzburg to its portfolio of city breaks, TUI UK&I has given its customers even more options when it comes to vacation planning.

There are currently 57 city breaks available for tourists looking for quick vacations thanks to TUI’s quick expansion of its city break packages, which has seen the addition of six more cities since January.

Travellers can enjoy a combination of leisurely beach days and exploring the city of Alicante, which is teeming with amazing architecture from the Mediaeval to the Modernist periods. There are lots of local bars to check out along the waterfront, and it’s easy to go from the beach to the bustling city centre.

Salzburg is a vibrant city with a wealth of museums, culture, stunning mountain views, and architecture that transports you to a Renaissance painting. Salzburg has a lot to offer tourists of all stripes, including a large number of local taverns, beer, and traditional food vendors.

And since Salzburg is the birthplace of the Sound of Music, there’s no better way to commemorate the movie’s 60th anniversary than to take a trip there and experience the beloved 1959 musical.

Family rescued from house fire in Villajoyosa

Yesterday afternoon, Monday 31st March, a fire started on the bottom floor of a house near the railway bridge in Villajoyosa, forcing a family to evacuate. However, no one there needed medical care, according to municipal sources.

The local police, the Guardia Civil, firefighters from the Provincial Consortium attached to the Benidorm fire station, and an ambulance—which was eventually unnecessary—were among the emergency services sent to the scene.

Throughout the late afternoon, a large portion of the town could see the smoke column, which was coming from the Costes district.

Benidorm emergency services rescue Brit from an estate agents sign

When a 27-year-old British tourist climbed from an upper floor to an estate agency sign while on holiday in Benidorm, he became stuck and had no idea how to get out. The tourist stood impassively over the business sign a few meters above the ground, while around him, on central Calle Gambo, curious people and police officers gathered and cordoned off the immediate area. This unexpected deployment of emergency personnel included both local and national police and firefighters.

The man was left lying on the sign for a short while until a fire engine ladder finally came up to the sign and assisted him in getting out.

Police sources claim that the tourist received no punishment for the event, not even an arrest or fine. This pedestrian and commercial route, which links Plaza Triangular with Calle Martínez Alejost, returned to normal whilsts some locals used their mobile phones to record the events.
