The victim, a 29-year-old man, was found shot dead in a wood after his mother reported him missing one day earlier. The man had three bullets in his rib cage.
The press reported that the victim and the murder suspect took part in a party in a house situated in a wood in Zubrești. The house allegedly belongs to Ion Stratulat’s family.
