A 43-year-old Polish professor was recently murdered outside his former wife’s home in Agia Paraskevi, Greece, in what investigators are calling a “premeditated execution.” Shocking new revelations point to a coordinated plan involving multiple accomplices — including the victim’s ex-wife and her current partner.
Authorities uncovered critical exchanges made via the encrypted messaging app Signal just moments before the murder. These messages, sent from someone inside the home, are believed to have triggered the fatal shooting. Investigators traced the device used to the son of the alleged shooter, who was present in the house with the professor’s ex-wife and her two children.
According to police findings, the shooter received a go-ahead message moments before stepping out of a car and fatally shooting the professor.
In addition to the digital trail, investigators also learned of an alleged hush-money demand. It appears the co-conspirators had asked for €50,000 to remain silent. Reportedly, the ex-wife attempted to withdraw this amount from the professor’s bank account but was unsuccessful.
Statements from other suspects suggest that the ex-wife was the mastermind behind the killing. They allege she feared losing custody of her children, as the professor had intended to take them to the U.S.
Security footage shows the killer exiting a vehicle with his head covered in a blue blanket — a failed attempt at disguise. In his own testimony, the 35-year-old man confessed to the shooting, claiming he was acting to protect his family. He described the victim as abusive and manipulative, painting a grim picture of family conflict and personal despair.
Authorities continue their investigation as multiple suspects remain in custody, facing charges of murder and criminal conspiracy.
