A new drama has taken place in Aveyron and it could well be, according to the first elements of the investigation, a feminicide.

A 48-year-old woman was stabbed to death on Sunday in Aveyron, and her husband, who allegedly attempted suicide, is now the main suspect, a source close to the investigation said.

According to the first elements collected by the investigators, at the time of the murder, which occurred on a road in the town of Calmont, the victim was alone with her husband, aged 50.

The latter, found seriously injured, also with a knife, at the scene of the tragedy, was hospitalized.

According to the Center Presse website, he was between life and death when he was found.

The investigators of the gendarmerie and the technicians in criminal identification were still at the scene of the tragedy this Sunday evening, continue our colleagues.

The prosecution limited itself to confirming that it had been seized of the case, without making any other comments.

This Sunday, Le Parisien reveals the conclusions of "the national study on violent deaths within the couple" for the year 2020. Last year, 125 domestic homicides were recorded.

The study adds that in the overwhelming majority of cases, murders are perpetrated at home, in a context of separation and / or argument.

“From this Monday, I will demand that everywhere in France, the treatment of complaints for domestic violence be a priority.

That is to say that they are dealt with in front of all the others: in front of burglaries, in front of narcotics, in front of pick-pocketing, "he promises.
