Overview
- The Navalmoral de la Mata court issued an inhibition transferring the investigation to the Juzgado de Violencia sobre la Mujer de Cáceres, according to a TSJEx notice.
- The order states the facts could fall within the scope of Ley Orgánica 1/2004, citing the couple’s affective relationship and the possible existence of an injuries offense.
- The inhibition order reached the Cáceres court on Friday, 13 February, which will now instruct the case and determine the final legal classification after further inquiries.
- The fire occurred on 4 December in a two‑storey home in Navalmoral de la Mata; both occupants suffered severe burns, the man died the next day in Getafe, and Tamara died hours after arriving at La Paz hospital in Madrid.
- The victim’s family had said they were told it was gender-based violence and reported delays in funeral arrangements; if ultimately confirmed, the case would be counted as the fifth such fatality in Extremadura in 2025.
