The detention order for the 43-year-old man of Syrian origin, a suspect in the premeditated murder of Olga Vasileva, has been extended for another eight days.
The suspect confessed to killing Olga Vasileva by striking her repeatedly in the head and face with a hammer and then disposing of her body and her personal belongings.
After her cell phone was located in the sea near Agios Georgios Alamanos—where he indicated where he had been standing and how he had thrown the victim’s cell phone into the water— the suspect also indicated the spot where he had disposed of her bag, which he threw into a recycling bin in the Amathountas area.
Members of the Limassol CID investigation team, who are piecing together the puzzle of this brutal femicide one piece at a time, combed the area and found the victim’s bag and her personal belongings.
As the 43-year-old stated in his confession, after fatally injuring his partner, he left her body in the house for an entire night and the next day transported it and dumped it in thesewer in her orchard in Siatta.
Investigators requested that his detention order be renewed so they could gather additional evidence and complete their investigation.
Three searches are expected to be conducted at specific locations to locate specific evidence related to the case.
Telecommunications records are expected to be seized, and bank accounts are expected to be audited.
It should be noted that the 61-year-old woman was reported missing after her dog—which she never left alone—began barking frantically.
The dog was found malnourished, and her vehicle was found locked in the Linopetra area.
The 43-year-old man attempted to flee to Beirut as soon as the 61-year-old woman was reported missing.
