The police in the Italian city of Padua have arrested the alleged killer of the Bulgarian woman, Albena Petrova Birdi.
The news was reported Saturday by the Italian daily Corriere del Veneto.
The woman’s body was found in an advanced stage of decay in a drainage channel in Padua on the morning of October 20. A post-mortem examination of the body, conducted by Padua’s police forensic doctor revealed that the woman had died as a result of blows inflicted to the left side of her skull.
54-year-old Antonio Prandato, who lived in a trailer in the small town Galzignano Terme was detained over suspicions he killed the 35-year-old Bulgarian in his car.
Italian police say the woman was a prostitute and this is how she ended in Prandato’s car. The man hit her with an unidentified heavy object and then threw the body in the drainage channel. The murder happened in September, Italian authorities inform.
Prandato tried to conceal the evidence, but was unable to completely clean the car seat soaked with the victim’s blood. A DNA probe of the woman matched the blood in the car.
The motives for the crime remain unclear, ranging between an arguement over illegal drugs gone bad, a ritual murder of a prostitute or jealousy over the fact Albena Birdi was seeing other men than Prandato.
