Horror in Pakoštane: Slovak Man Kills Woman in Apartment, Police Arrive Only a Day Later!
In the quiet town of Pakoštane on the Croatian coast, a shocking tragedy unfolded that has stunned everyone. A 51-year-old Slovak man brutally killed a 46-year-old Slovak woman in an apartment where four people who knew each other were staying. But here’s the kicker – the police only arrived at the crime scene a full day after the incident! How is it possible that the body lay in the apartment for more than 24 hours before anyone reacted?
What exactly happened?
The incident occurred on the evening of Monday, July 1st. A physical altercation broke out between the suspect and the victim. The woman sustained severe injuries that proved fatal. According to police and Nova TV reports, the cause of death was internal bleeding due to multiple blows. Emergency services were called only the next day, but by the time they arrived, the woman showed no signs of life and doctors could do nothing.
Why did the police wait a whole day?
Ivana Grbin, spokesperson for the Zadar Police Department, declined to comment on the delay citing the ongoing criminal investigation. But this is a question troubling many – how could the body remain in the apartment for so long without any response?
Investigation and detention
The Zadar County Court ordered 30 days of pre-trial detention for the suspect due to the risk of flight and possible witness tampering. The competent state prosecutor’s office is conducting an investigation for the crime of aggravated murder. This case casts a shadow over tourist safety and reminds us how crucial it is for police and emergency services to act swiftly and effectively.
What’s next?
This horrific event reminds us of the dark side of tourism and human relationships. How can such tragedies happen while authorities delay their response? Will the investigation uncover all the details and bring justice to the victim? And what will change to prevent such incidents from happening again?
