Minister on alleged child killer: They usually commit suicide or meet a violent death

Criminology professor Yiannis Panousis made the comment in reference to a missing 4-year-old girl, whose father reportedly killed her and dismembered her body

Greece’s relevant on Tuesday reverted to his criminologist background in predicting that a man charged this week with killing his four-year-old daughter will either commit suicide or die “a violent death”!

Yiannis Panousis, a professor of criminology whose portfolio oversees the country’s law enforcement agencies, made the startling statement in reference to the case of four-year-old Ani Borisova, whose widely reported disappearance soon gave way to a shocking murder confession by her own father.

“No one can even analyze this (incident) from a criminological, criminal or even social standpoint. We’re talking about an extreme, inhuman behavior, even more so given that it involves a child – a child that wasn’t foreign to him; wasn’t kidnapped or anything else,” Panousis said, adding the “clincher”:

“They (these types of perpetrators) usually commit suicide or endure a violent death… This (type of crime) isn’t tolerated even by the one who committed it.”

The gruesome crime, according police and judicial sources, involves the reputedly drug-taking suspect stabbing the child to death, before dismembering her body and throwing away the body parts in trash bins.

Bulgarian national Dimitar “Savvas” Borisov, 27, has allegedly confessed to the murder, with formal charges pending. The missing girl’s mother was also arrested on child endangerment charges.
