‘The woman with the flower tattoo’ is named as Rita Roberts after 31 years
Rita Roberts was violently killed before her body was dumped in a river in Antwerp, Belgium, in 1992. For three decades, she remained nameless, until an international effort to identify her was launched.
Rita Roberts' family recognised the inking on her left forearm of a black flower with green leaves in an appeal and called Interpol.
