Madrid A couple is arrested for mistreating their children after one of them confessed to his teacher that he wanted to end his life
The National Police have arrested a couple for abandoning minors, since they had their 6 and 8 year old daughters living in absolutely unsanitary conditions in Palencia and they had
not taken them to school
since mid-January.
It was the person in charge of a
supermarket in Palencia who raised the alarm
and notified the National Police last Saturday when she saw that there were
two dirty and half-naked girls buying
food in the establishment, as reported this Wednesday by the Provincial Police Station.

When the National Police arrived at the supermarket, the girls were already being cared for by the employees and, once their state of dirt
, semi-nakedness and abandonment
was confirmed , they were taken to the Police Station, where they were provided with warm clothing.
After finding out his address, agents from the National Police went to
the house
and found that it was in an
absolutely unsanitary state
, with an accumulation of garbage and dirt that had caused the appearance of insects.
Inside the house was the girls' father, who had
sent them to the supermarket in these conditions to buy food
, and who was arrested as the alleged perpetrator of a crime of abandonment of minors.
Once brought to justice, the detainee was released due to medical needs, with the obligation to appear before the judicial authority when required and to communicate any change of address.
The
mother of the minors,
who was out of the city, was arrested upon her return to Palencia on the afternoon of last Sunday the 11th and was placed at the disposal of the judicial authority, which ordered her
release with charges.
The minors were transferred to the
Emergency Service of the Río Carrión Hospital
which, after an examination, confirmed their good health.
Both were at the disposal of Social Services.
The Scientific Police inspected the home where the family lived to prove its unhealthiness.
