The Third Court of Violence Against Women ordered his provisional detention without bail after police recently arrested the alleged perpetrator at [Quatre Camins penitentiary](http://justicia.gencat.cat/?ref=barna.news), where he was already serving a previous sentence. The man, now 25, had been in prison since 2018 for other sexual offences committed as a minor, El Periódico reported. He allegedly committed the Montjuïc Park rape during a penitentiary leave, which current regulations permit. ## Details of the Alleged Attack The incident for which he now faces trial occurred in February. The man reportedly assaulted the victim from behind at midday on a rainy day. She was walking dogs in the [Jardins de Costa i Llobera](https://www.barcelona.cat/en?ref=barna.news), a popular area within Montjuïc Park. He then dragged her to a secluded area, where he allegedly beat and assaulted her for 45 minutes. The attacker fled afterwards, and the victim sought help before paramedics took her to a medical centre. ## Rising Sexual Assault Concerns This case follows another recent arrest by the Mossos d’Esquadra of a man linked to two sexual assaults in the Sant Andreu district. Sexual offences are a major concern for police in Barcelona, a city home to 1.6 million residents. Data shows sexual assaults have increased in the city in recent years. Hospital Clínic, a specialist centre in Barcelona, reported a 15% rise in cases by mid-2023, the latest available data. The hospital attended to 784 cases in 2024, averaging two assaults per day. Authorities continue to process the case against the 25-year-old man. The ongoing rise in sexual assault incidents highlights persistent challenges for public safety in Barcelona.
