Liudmila Zavada, a 31-year-old Russian citizen, has been identified 20 years after her body was found in Spain. The identification, part of Interpol's Operation Identify Me, utilized Turkish police's national database and a DNA match with a Russian relative. Zavada, known as "the woman in pink," is the third person identified through the initiative, which aims to solve cold cases involving unidentified female victims across Europe. Investigations into her death continue, and Interpol highlights the challenges of identifying victims in cases involving international migration and human trafficking.
