The Guardia Urbana in Barcelona have arrested a man suspected of killing a woman and her two children in Tarragona on October 17th.
The woman, aged 26 years, and her two children, aged six years and two years, were found dead in a bathtub in calle Reial, Tarragona, on October 17th, their bodies covered with plaster and cement.
The detainee is the former husband of the woman, the couple having separated some months earlier, and he was thought to have fled back to Morocco after the killings.
There had been a restraining order in place since 2009. At one point, the woman applied to have the order lifted but the judge refused.
