A murder probe has been opened after
two Chinese women prostiuttes and a South American transsexual
woman sex worker were found stabbed to death, probably by the
same hand, in Rome Thursday, police said.
One Chinese prostitute was found naked at the entrance to a
flat, presumably caught as she was trying to flee her killer,
and the other inside the apartment, they said.
The discovery was made in via Augusto Riboty, in the upscale
Prati district of the Italian capital.
The transsexual sex worker was found stabbed to death in via
Durazzo, in the same quarter.
"We e suspect the same hand at work in all three cases", said
police.
Autopsies have been ordered.
The porter of the building raised the alarm after finding a
woman whose clothes were drenched in blood on the doorstep of
the flat.
Police then entered and found the other woman.
Police are scanning the phone records of all three to see which
clients they had been in touch with recently.
