A brutal crime was uncovered on Friday afternoon in Skourta, Boeotia. A man was found charred to death in the back seat of a car and handcuffed in the back.

According to initial information, the car had been stolen from an area in Attica and was carrying fake license plates.

The case is considered particularly serious and has already been taken over by the Organized Crime Division (the so-called Greek FBI).

A key element in the case is to identify the victim. The initial assessment is that the man died about two days ago. The burned car with the body inside was discovered by a hunter.

The police consider it a particularly important detail that the car was stolen from Glyfada last spring, but the fake license plates correspond to a car of the same type from Pieria. They are already investigating the recent disappearance of a foreign national from Attica who had informed that he was going to Villia. However, this individual has no criminal record.
