New details have come to light from the autopsy —autopsy of the body of 45-year-old Stavroula Leventaki, who was murdered by her 43-year-old tenant in Chania, Crete.

The new evidence raises questions about the testimony given by the 43-year-old man from Skopje regarding how he killed the 45-year-old woman. It should be noted that the confessed murderer claimed that he struck the 45-year-old woman on the head with a bottle, then tied her up, then stabbed her, and finally struck her on the head with a log.

However, the forensic report contradicts these findings. According to a report by Mega, the woman was tied up while she was still alive, and she did not suffer a blow to the head from a bottle. Furthermore, there is no evidence of a blow to the perpetrator’s head from a bottle.

Instead, the perpetrator struck her on the head with a log, and after Stavroula had died, he inflicted two superficial stab wounds on her.

The cover-up to pin the crime on someone else

The 43-year-old described to the police the plan he devised to frame another person for the murder of Stavroula Leventaki.

The perpetrator testified that he took the woman’s card and withdrew cash from an ATM to make it appear as though she had been the victim of a robbery.

However, he thought he might be identified by security cameras, so he drove around in his car looking for an alternative solution.

According to his alleged statement, he approached a foreign national and gave him Stavroula’s card, as well as her PIN, urging him to withdraw cash.

So far, the foreign national in question is said not to have made a cash withdrawal, thereby thwarting the perpetrator’s plan, according to his own confession.

The investigation is ongoing, however, with the police preparing to lift the victim’s bank secrecy.
