A passerby reportedly raised the alarm at 6.30am on Sunday after spotting the victim’s body in some bushes near railway tracks.

The police dispatched officers to the scene, saying: “The first observations showed wounds in the chest area and on the face. Then, an examination was carried out with the participation of the prosecutor and a forensic expert. They showed that a homicide had taken place.”
