Summary

An 87-year-old woman, Maricarmen Abascal, was forcibly evicted from her Madrid apartment of over 70 years after a real estate firm raised her rent by 275 percent to €2,650 monthly—far exceeding her pension of approximately €1,500. Police removed her on a stretcher after giving her about 30 minutes to pack. The eviction sparked thousands of protesters in Madrid and dozens of other Spanish cities demanding tenant protections and affordable housing reforms. Tenants' unions and government officials including Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez called for new legislation. However, the Spanish parliament rejected an emergency housing relief package, with votes against it from the opposition Popular Party, the Catalan separatist party Junts, and the far-right Vox party. Sánchez's office has not confirmed reports of her death. No official cause of death has been established. Protesters chanted that she had been 'murdered' by landlord greed, but the claim is disputed by opposition parties and the PP.
