Interpol's Identify Me campaign successfully identified a Russian woman, Liudmila Zavada, whose body was found in Spain in 2005. The identification, achieved through a fingerprint match in Turkey's database and confirmed via DNA analysis, marks the third success for the campaign, which aims to identify unidentified female bodies across Europe. Zavada's case, initially deemed suspicious due to evidence of body movement, was solved after 20 years, offering closure to her family and new investigative leads. The campaign leverages global police cooperation to connect databases and solve cold cases.
