This last measure was criticised by the Popular Party when it was proposed by the Socialist government on the grounds that a threatened man should have the same rights as a threatened woman.  However, despite protests the measure was passed so that from today onwards,  any man who threatens his partner will be considered to be committing a serious criminal offence. Men who do not comply with orders to keep a minimum distance from their ex-partners will also be committing a crime and if found guilty, could pay with a prison sentence or a heavy fine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest measures of the Spanish government&#8217;s policies aimed at tackling the worrying figures of domestic violence in Spain came into effect today.
