Courts in Spain and Italy Sentence Men for Domestic Abuse

A Spanish court sentenced an Argentinian man to nearly six years in prison after he attacked his ex-wife with a box cutter in Alicante. The ruling follows a separate case in Venice where Italian authorities removed a man from his home after his child reported years of abuse to the police.The Spanish defendant lost parental rights after the assault, while the Italian investigation revealed the victim had suffered four years of silent violence.
