A TOURIST stabbed to death on paradise island Mauritius had “met her killer on Tinder after seeking a holiday romance.”
University teacher Zaliya Shamigulova, 29, had been missing since leaving her rental flat near picturesque Flic-en-Flac beach on 17 August.

the woman, from Russia, was seen wearing a white and blue dress on video getting into a blue Toyota car of a “local man” who was “giving her a lift”.
It was the last time she was seen alive, and she was reported missing by a female travelling companion.
Her relatives in Russia received messages allegedly from her saying she had decided to disappear and not to contact her.
Her body was tragically found in a makeshift grave on Thursday with multiple stab wounds in woodland in La Marie, a residential area, said reports.
Now it has emerged that the detained suspect of the killing met the tourist via dating app Tinder, according Russian media SHOT, which spoke to her distraught family.
The male suspect confessed to the killing, say local police, who are now determining if there were accomplices.
The report said: “He said he was deeply in love with 29-year-old Zaliya Shamigulova and [claimed he] was planning to marry her.”
During interrogation, he said that he had “allegedly learned about his new girlfriend’s infidelity”.
“On Saturday, the man went to take the Russian woman sightseeing on the island, but in a fit of jealous rage, he pulled out a knife and brutally killed his lover before stripping her and burying her body.”
The tragically deceased woman had recently posted that on her Mauritius holiday she was “catching happiness every day.”
She had been a torch bearer ahead of the Winter Olympics in Sochi in 2014.
She was a university teacher from Chelyabinsk in the Urals.
Zaliya was due to travel to Madagascar on 1 September.
