A 48-year-old Belgian resident of Torre del Mar was arrested on Saturday on suspicion of physical and psychological violence towards his wife over the course of a year.

The arrest came after the woman, 43 and also Belgian, was seen and heard by neighbours threatening to jump of the balcony of their home in the town. She was prevented from doing so by a male neighbour who was able to access the house.

When local police officers arrived at the scene the woman told them that she was threatening to kill herself after sustaining physical and psychological abuse from her husband over the last year. Officers reported that the woman had a number of bruises on her body suggesting physical abuse, which led to the man's arrest.
