According to the version of a sister of the victim, Eulalia separated from Sixto a month ago. On the day of the events, one of the girls required medical attention, so the perpetrator accompanied the woman to the health center. However, upon returning to her home, he attacked her with his machete.
Two girls of 6 and 2 years old are orphaned by this fact. The Prosecutor’s Office provided information to officials from the Ministry of Women and Human Rights to coordinate timely care for the girls who were orphaned, therefore vulnerable.
