Police have identified persons of interest in the killing of a Slovak woman who was found dead with a stab wound in the abdomen at an abandoned chapel on Boracay Island in Malay, Aklan on Wednesday.
Lt. Col. Mar Joseph Ravelo, chief of the Malay police, yesterday said two or more men might be behind the death of Michaela Mickova, 23.
Ravelo said Mickova had mingled with these men.
Asked if the victim possibly knew the persons of interest, Ravelo said Mickova got acquainted with them while she was exploring Boracay.
"The victim was friendly. She made one friend every day during her stay in Boracay," he said.
