Ex-wife of UC Berkeley professor shot in Greece arrested on suspicion of plotting his killing
The ex-wife of a beloved UC Berkeley professor has been charged with arranging to have him killed in an Athenian suburb earlier this month, according to Greek media reports.
Przemysław Jeziorski, 43, was gunned down on July 4 in Agia Paraskevi, a suburb of Athens, as he was walking to the home of his ex wife, Nadia Michelidaki, to see his two children.
According to a story in To Vima, a Greek newspaper, authorities arrested Michelidaki and accused her of convincing her current partner to kill Jeziorski.
Police also arrested her companion – who has not been identified – and three other men as accomplices.
The three men, two Albanians and a Bulgarian man, were accused of transporting the shooter to the crime scene and giving him the firearm used in the crime.
