The husband has lodged a formal complaint over an allegedly delayed search by harbour police.

Overview

  • The husband publicly said the remains are those of 59-year-old Michele Ann Bourda, with forensic confirmation pending.
  • Greek media reports, citing British outlets, say the body was located on the private islet of Fidonisi about 40 kilometers from where she was last seen.
  • Reports describe the remains as severely decomposed, partially consumed by fish, and missing the head, with an autopsy expected to determine the cause of death.
  • Bourda disappeared on August 1 from a beach near Kavala while her husband slept, and her bag and clothing were reportedly left at the spot.
  • Greek authorities have not issued a detailed public account of the case, and the investigation continues.
