On 26 December, around 6 a.m. in the Tinerfeña town of Arona, the corpse of a 29-year-old transsexual woman appeared. The Spanish Civil Guard has reported that the woman was killed between 21 and 22 this month of febrero.Un man was arrested last Sunday, 27 December, after police analyzed surveillance images and interviewed her immediate neighbors. Despite the limited details about her death, researchers suspect she was killed in a private karaoke bar in the British capital. The victim received several stab wounds in the abdomen, according to the Institute of Forensic Medicine of Tenerife (IVML).

Raising of family support

The trans-sexual women’s association TransGirls Canarias in the Canary Islands has launched a campaign to collect funds via the Gofundme platform. The aim is to raise EUR 3,000 and have so far received EUR 250. As Iratxe Otero’s relatives have indicated, they reside in Bilbao and do not have sufficient financial resources to cover construction costs. The association of transgender women wants, among other things, to give Otero a final goodbye.

Media behaviour

Many of the media that alerted the homicide have not respected the identity of the victim and have used their home name to commit the crime. On the other hand, they have reported that photos have been leaked from what happened in the incident. That is why trans, LGTBI+ and feminist associations have denounced the institutional violence suffered by women. The associations have denounced that during the investigation process the media have violated the right to privacy of the victim and his family. You have pointed out that this is a transfeminicide: "This is not an isolated event, let alone temporary news. This tragic news shows the daily violence against trans women, particularly trans women, who suffer a greater burden of discrimination".

LGTBI+ agents call for prevention, justice and reparation n.Han stated that the fight against patriarchal violence, transphobia and lgbti-phobia is the responsibility of all civil society. They have transferred to public institutions that the obligation is theirs and that it is necessary to establish policies and strategies to address the causes that cause, reproduce and perpetuate such violence.
