The body of Giulia Cecchettin, a 22-year-old engineering student, was found days before her graduation in a ditch near a lake north of Venice. She had been wrapped in plastic and reportedly stabbed multiple times.
The discovery came after a weeklong search that had gripped the nation. Before her disappearance, roadside cameras are said to have captured her former partner Filippo Turetta hitting her.
On Wednesday a court in eastern Germany, where Turetta, 21, had been arrested after his car broke down, said it had approved his extradition to Italy, where he will be taken into custody on arrival and questioned by an investigating judge.
With reports from Cecchettin's friends and family of Turetta's alleged refusal to accept her decision to end the relationship, the case has rattled many across the country.
