Authorities are on the trail of the killer of the 24-year-old woman from Burkina Faso, whose body was found inside a suitcase in Agios Panteleimonas.
According to the latest information, the alleged perpetrator has fled to France via Italy, and the Greek police are requesting the assistance of French authorities to locate him.
The victim and the 20-year-old man had met in 2024 at a shelter on the island of Leros and, according to reports, were in a relationship. The 24-year-old’s partner was a Cameroonian man, who reported her disappearance on October 29. He was, it appears, the last person to see her alive.
The “journey” of the suitcase
According to ERT, police believe the victim went to the alleged perpetrator’s home in Kolonos. A fight then ensued, during which the 20-year-old killed the 24-year-old by suffocating her.
The young man then purchased a suitcase, placed the 24-year-old’s lifeless body inside it, and transported it to Agios Panteleimonas.
He left it on the sidewalk on Alkamenous Street, next to a trash bin, apparently believing that the garbage truck would pick it up along with the rest of the trash.
Police pieced together footage from security cameras and mapped the 20-year-old’s route from the spot where he left the suitcase to Kolonos. According to reports, he returned there, cleaned up the crime scene, gathered his personal belongings, and disappeared.
