Agents of the National Police are investigating the appearance of the corpse of a woman and that of a man with signs of violence at a home in the Madrid district of Moratalaz, a spokeswoman for the Madrid Police Headquarters has informed Europa Press.

The agents were alerted this morning through the neighbors by a strong odor that came from a home located on Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente street.

Upon arrival, and since its inhabitants did not answer, they have broken down the door and have found two corpses in different rooms and in an advanced state of decomposition..

Agents of the Scientific Police and Homicide Group V have traveled to the place, who is in charge of the investigation to determine the causes of both deaths..

Pending confirmation of more details, the deceased are a 61-year-old Spanish man and a 51-year-old woman, with an unknown background at the moment.

The Police do not rule out any hypothesis, but the one that gains strength is that the man had killed the woman and then committed suicide, a possible new fatal crime of gender violence.
