Ex-British Doctor Arrested in Ecuador After Model’s Body Found in Suitcase
A former British doctor was detained in Ecuador following an Interpol Red Notice linked to the death of 36-year-old Colombian model Natalia Villalba Angarita. Authorities in Bogotá allege he entered her apartment, assaulted her and concealed her body in a suitcase. The model’s remains were discovered by cleaners on June 22 when her rental period expired. Investigators say the shower was running and forensic evidence points to a violent assault. Security footage and phone records reportedly trace the suspect’s movements before and after the killing. The suspect has denied involvement, claiming he was watching a World Cup match. He faces extradition to Colombia and could be charged with aggravated femicide and evidence tampering. If convicted, he may face 40 to 50 years in prison. The case echoes another recent suitcase murder in Bogotá.
