Foreigner allegedly strangled two prostitutes over money
(PDM staff with CTK) 11 August - The Prague City Court yesterday began proceedings against Ukrainian national Oleh Opryya, 27, charged with the murder of two prostitutes.
The man allegedly killed the women, a 53-year-old Czech and a 23-year-old Ukrainian, in their flats in Prague last September. He contacted both of them through their ads offering sexual services.
Opryya allegedly strangled both women for money, taking their mobile phones, cameras and jewellery. He allegedly gave some of the items to his friends.
By the time police had identified Opryya's DNA on the sheets of one of the victims, he had then left the country, allegedly to join his family in Ukraine. His brother and mother say they have not seen him for over two years.
Opryya worked in the Czech Republic as a carpenter, but had been sacked the day of the first murder. One of Opryya's friends said he was a good carpenter and a good chap unless he was drinking.
If found guilty, he faces more than 15 years in prison.
