Woman studying pharmacy at Granada University who was found brutally stabbed to death in her flat

52 year old man, Manuel R.S., faces a trial by jury this Tuesday for the murder of Lamyae D., a 23 year old woman studying pharmacy at Granada University who was found brutally stabbed to death in her flat in March last year. She suffered more than 20 stab wounds and, according to evidence from the prosecutor, was dragged back into the flat to be stabbed again as she tried to make her escape after the initial assault.Her killer confessed to the crime, saying in his statement that he was drunk at the time and had ‘lost his head’. He faces a possible 12 years in prison and compensation of 300,000 €.The victim and her assailant were known to each other and, for that reason, the private accusation presented by the young woman’s family believes he should spend 20 years behind bars with the additional charge of ‘abuse of confidence’.
