Shocking revelations about the femicide in Crete - The murderer went to hide her car with the dead woman inside

After the attack, the murderer and former partner of the deceased crashed his motorcycle, took a taxi home and then returned to the scene of the crime. He drove the woman's car with her body in the back seat and abandoned her in a field. Later, around eight hours after the crime, he appears to have used the victim's cell phone, sending an automated message to her son.

The next morning, he told the police that he had crashed his motorcycle and that he had no differences with the 43-year-old. That same evening, he returned to the police station to be informed about the investigations and to remind them that he had no contact with the woman's disappearance. On Tuesday afternoon, he was called again for a supplementary statement, mainly to clarify what he did when he arrived at his home in Malades.

The police had video footage showing him leaving in his Smart and returning to the chapel in order to cover his tracks. As he realized that the authorities were approaching him, on Tuesday afternoon he ended his life, in the chapel of Panagia Kardiotissa, before Prophet Elias.

He killed the 43-year-old in less than a minute

The murder of the 43-year-old occurred in less than a minute. According to police sources, the 39-year-old had allegedly arranged a meeting with her at the chapel of Agios Panteleimonos, in the area of ​​Stavrakiani, near the village of Dafnes. The woman left her home at 11:02 and arrived at the scene at 11:06. The perpetrator shot the unfortunate woman once in the head and placed her face down in the back seat of her car. He then fell off the motorcycle at 11:08 and, at approximately 12:00, was found injured in a cafe on the Heraklion-Miroun provincial road, where he called a taxi to return home. He told the taxi driver that he had been injured by his daughter's horse.

After changing clothes at home, the 39-year-old returned to the chapel in his Smart, took the woman's car and transported the body to a field near Agia Varvara. At 13:13 he stopped at a gas station, called a taxi and returned to get his car, leaving at 14:00. The body of the 44-year-old was found by the authorities at 17:20.
