Georgian national Mamuka K. who is suspected of murdering a 28-year-old woman from Łódź has been transported to a remand centre in Łódź - said Joanna Kącka from Łódź police on Wednesday.
The prosecutor's office in Łódź will question the 39-year-old in the coming days. He will then be charged. It's possible to happen already on Thursday.
"The detained man has been transported in a special convoy from Warsaw to Łódź. He was calm and was cooperating. Before taking him to the remand centre, we have performed a series of routine activities such as taking finderprints and biological material for lab tests," said Joanna Kącka.
She added that further actions will be taken on the request of the prosecutor's office leading the case. On Tuesday, after the court in Ukraine approved of Polish prosecutor's requests for extradition, Mamuka K. was transported from Ukraine to Poland. He spent the night in detention in Warsaw.
The 39-year-old Georgian national, suspected of murdering the woman in a sexual assault, was detained in early November in a street in Kiev. The International Arrest Warrant after Mamuka K. was issued on the 28th of October 2018. He is facing life imprisonment.
Poland's Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro said that the prosecution "will do everything to make sure that Mamuka K. gets the most severe punishment possible".
The woman was reported missing on the 20th October 2018. Paulina D. left home on Friday to meet with her friends. She was last seen in the company of an unknown man in a street in Łódź, which was caught by the CCTV. The investigators determined so far that the 28-year-old was killed in a flat on Żeromskiego street in Łódź.
Based on the secured traces and other evidence it was determined that the murder took place before noon on October 20 and then, about 6 pm, wrapped in plastic, placed in a bag and transported to a grove nearby Stawy Jana park. The body was discovered a week later, on Friday, October 26.
The post mortem showed initially that the death was caused by puncture wounds on the victim's neck. Furthermore, some wounds indicated that the woman could have also been beaten.
