The murder of three prostitutes, including one South American, who was found dead in a residential area of Rome, has raised the alarm in the Italian capital for the action of a possible serial killer in the city.
According to Italian media, the victims were stabbed to death. The bodies of two Chinese nationals were found late yesterday morning in a building in the Prati district, one of Rome’s most exclusive districts.
The body of the South American, identified as Colombian by the newspaper Il Corriere della Sera, was found an hour later in an apartment in the same neighborhood, stabbed in the stomach, police told AFP.
The agents said the three were “probably sex workers”.
The naked body of one of the Chinese women was found by a neighbor in front of an apartment. According to media reports, the 40-year-old woman suffered head and stomach injuries.
When officers arrived, they found the body of the second victim. According to the statements of the residents of the neighborhood, no one heard the screams in the building.
“Everyone knew there was a brothel there because you could see people coming in until 2am,” said a resident of the building.
According to Corriere della Sera, the Colombian victim was a 65-year-old trans woman whose body was discovered by a friend.
The police examine the victims’ phone records to see if there is any connection between them and monitor the security cameras in the area known as the lawyers’ quarter due to its proximity to the Court.
