V061-VARIOS SOSPECHOSA ATENTADO MONACO

Police released on Friday (July 3) photos of the suspect of a bomb attack in Monaco, a Ukrainian woman who targeted a wealthy businessman, and who authorities said had fled to Germany and had likely not acted alone.

Ukrainian-born Vadym Yermolaiev, his partner and son were wounded in the attack on Monday (June 29), other sources said earlier this week.

Anastasiia Berezovska, 39, was named as the chief suspect in an Interpol Red Notice, which said she was Ukrainian, spoke German and was being sought by Monaco for attempted murder, placing an explosive device in a public place with criminal intent and criminal conspiracy.

The principality, known for its casino and the luxury lifestyle of its wealthy inhabitants, is located on the Mediterranean coast, surrounded by France.

A Red Notice is a request for law enforcement to locate and provisionally arrest a suspect no matter where they are found.

The attacker left a parcel in front of a building in Monaco and set off the bomb with a remote control when the three victims arrived there, Deputy Prosecutor Morgan Raymond told reporters.

The suspect then left on foot to nearby France and fled with a car that had been rented in Germany, driving back to Germany via several European countries, including Italy.

Officials had said earlier this week that the suspect, whom they described at the time as male, was seen on CCTV wearing a dark bucket hat and top.

The sophistication of the attack has led investigators to consider it likely that the suspect did not act alone, Raymond said. Two people were arrested in Monaco earlier this week but have been released, he added.

The suspect was later spotted in Frankfurt, a judicial source in Monaco said.
