A woman suspected of carrying out a bomb attack in Monaco was shot dead in Ukraine, police said on Tuesday, adding that an active intelligence officer and an accomplice had been detained on suspicion of her murder.
In a statement, Ukraine's national police said officers had "detained two individuals on suspicion of murdering a woman who was wanted by Interpol," identifying her as "Ukrainian citizen Anastasiia Berezovska."
The announcement comes after authorities across Europe were hunting for the woman suspected of planting a bomb in Monaco that wounded three people, including a Ukrainian-born tycoon and his teenaged son.
She was identified last week as 39-year-old Anastasiia Berezovska and was wanted in Monaco for attempted murder after she allegedly placed an explosive device on a public road with criminal intent and criminal conspiracy over the explosion on Monday, according to an Interpol Red Notice.
German law enforcement said they searched her rented apartment near the western city of Frankfurt last Thursday.
