The investigation was promptly handed to dedicated homicide investigators. Members of the Murder Group VI of the Provincial Judicial Police Brigade were assigned to examine the circumstances surrounding the stabbing, gather evidence, interview potential witnesses, and determine a suspect’s involvement and motive. The process will include reviewing surveillance material, collecting forensic samples, and compiling testimonies from neighbors and anyone who might have information about the events that led to the death.

Authorities emphasized that the case remains under active inquiry, with attention focused on confirming how, where, and why the attack occurred, as well as whether the victim was alone at the time or if others were present.

Experts in emergency response remind the public that rapid reporting can make a critical difference in violent incidents. When 112 receptors receive a distress call, they coordinate with police units to secure the area, offer immediate medical care, and preserve evidence for the judicial process. The case will be documented from the moment the first responders arrive through the subsequent forensic review, with findings contributing to the broader understanding of urban violence patterns in the region.
