The Athens Court has sentenced 39-year-old Albanian, Kastriot Cenko , to life imprisonment , accused of murdering his 32-year-old wife and the mother of their children,  Alba Cenko .

According to the court's decision, the defendant, a construction worker, will also serve 2 years and 6 months in prison for possession and use of weapons. 

He was found guilty of manslaughter in a state of mental insanity by a majority vote (6-1). One member thought the crime might have been committed in an emotional outburst, but this was not accepted.

The tragic event occurred in November 2024, where the accused hit the woman with a hammer, tied a cable around her neck, and then hid her body in the attic.

For five days, he distracted family and friends by claiming that his wife had gone abroad for work. He then confessed to the murder to the police.

The prosecutor emphasized during the trial that the accused acted with extraordinary calmness of mind, planned to cover up the crime, and showed no remorse. The victim, according to him, was a working woman who had only one goal: to raise her children.

During his defense, the 39-year-old claimed he lost control after the victim told him one of the children was not his and spoke to him sarcastically. He denied any prior planning, saying he acted in a moment of anger.
