A 38-year-old Spaniard, Juan S.H., has been remanded in custody accused of having stabbed two men who were both admitted to intensive care at Son Espases Hospital in a serious condition.
Around 3.30am last Saturday, there was an argument involving several people at a karaoke bar in Can Pastilla. Security ejected the two groups and the argument continued on the street.
Juan S.H. allegedly stabbed the two men several times in the back; neither of them were able to defend themselves.
The National Police investigation identified him and established that he had a police record for nineteen previous offences. A warrant for his arrest had been issued by a court in Malaga. He was arrested in Palma on Monday.

The use of knives is endemic throughout the world. Would a 20 year Prison Sentance be automatically applied to any person who uses a knife in an attack. I feel serious draconian punishment needs to be applied to these very bad criminals. As it stands, nothing is a deterrant to these bad people.
