An Irish tourist has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a woman believed to be his partner was strangled to death at a hotel in a Spanish holiday resort.
Police have confirmed they arrested the 30-year-old man after rushing to a hotel in the Costa Dorada resort of Salou, 70 miles south of Barcelona, and finding a woman lying lifeless in a corridor.
Her suspected killer, discovered beside her with an apparently “self-inflicted” wrist wound, was taken to hospital where he remained under police guard this morning.
