Shocking murder of 43-year-old woman by her 70-year-old partner


The murder of a 43-year-old woman occurred in Salamis. Three days before her death, she filed a police complaint against her partner for beating her.

At 23:59 on 12/02/2023, the parole period of the 70-year-old partner of a woman found dead in her parents’ home on the island of Salamis expired. A man is suspected of killing his “lady” with a hunting rifle. The investigation and search for the culprit are in full swing.

According to the newsletter ELAS, last Saturday, that is, three days ago, a woman crossed the threshold of the Salamis police station, filing a complaint of domestic violence. In particular, as she allegedly claimed, on Friday evening (December 1), at 22:40, when the couple was in the house together, an argument occurred between them. At the same time, the man hit her, threatened her, and behaved inappropriately. After an argument, the complainant’s partner allegedly grabbed her mobile phone and drove off somewhere.

Police invited the woman to download and activate the “panic button” application and use it if she was in danger. The woman agreed with the “parting words” of law enforcement agencies and did everything necessary. At the insistence of the police, she went to her mother’s place, rather than to where she lived with the suspect.

In turn, the authorities began to look for the citizen in his home on the island, as well as in other places that he often visited. However, they failed to detect him in the context of being “detained red-handed”, as a result of which the “operation to capture the culprit” failed. The jealous man was never found and, accordingly, was not arrested.

Today, a few days after contacting the police, the woman was found dead with gunshot wounds to the stomach and chest. According to preliminary information,The attacker killed the “lady of the heart” through the glass of the front door – she did not have time to press the panic button. The tragedy occurred around 9:30 am on Tuesday, December 5th.

The alleged criminal arrived at her mother’s house in Ampelakia (Salamin), where the woman was hiding from the aggressor (she had been living since December 2 after the beating that took place in the house where the couple lived). Without thinking twice, the aggressor fired shots from a carbine through the glass of the front door. Police have launched a manhunt for a man suspected of murdering his partner.
