Caroline Crouch’s husband handed premeditated murder conviction
A 34-year-old Greek man was handed down a life sentence by an Athens court on Monday after being convicted of the premeditated murder, last May, of his 20-year-old wife, UK national Caroline Crouch.
The case attracted international media attention, especially in the United Kingdom, after Babis Anagnostopoulos first attempted to stage a break-in and throw off suspicions by claiming three suspects invaded his semi-rural condominium in the early morning hours of May 11, 2021 before strangling his wife and pet dog. He was found by police bound with string, which he himself tied.
