A DJ was found dead in a suitcase in a dumpster as police believe she was strangled.
Valentina Trespalacios, 23, was found inside the luggage in Bogota, Colombia, on January 22, as police search for their prime suspect – her boyfriend.
An autopsy revealed deep grooves in the Colombian DJ’s neck, which have led police to believe she was throttled.
American John Poulos, 35, is currently being hunted by police, according to local reports.
Mr Poulos has been missing since Ms Trespalacios’ body was found, and has reportedly deleted his social media accounts.
The horrifying discovery was made when a man spotted the suitcase in a skip.
When he opened it and found the body, he called the police to the scene.
During an inspection of the surrounding area, investigators found personal items belonging to the popular DJ, who had close to 16,000 followers on Instagram.
Among them were a student ID issued by Uninpahu University, where she is understood to have been studying trade and global business technology.
