CCTV footage showed the victim was stalked from her workplace to a train station before being attacked with a screwdriver—suffering 23 injuries.

The murderer, a now 27-year-old Algerian woman illegally present in France at the time of the crime, will serve life without possibility of commutation or parole.

The Algerian suspect should be handed the harshest penalty under the French penal code, the prosecution says.

The suspect is scheduled to take the stand on Wednesday, with the murder trial at a Madrid court expected to last until October 31.
