The body of Egyptian athlete Rawan El Husseiny, a former speedball world champion, has been found on the roof of a building in the Nile Delta province of Kafr El Sheikh.
Police officials said El Husseiny, 21, had died of strangulation.
They said an investigation has been launched to determine the exact circumstances.
Police said El Husseiny's family reported receiving a call from her phone late on Monday night and when they answered, an unidentified man informed them of the location of their daughter’s body and hung up.
Police said they received a call late on Monday that there was a young woman dead on top of a building.
El Husseiny’s funeral was held in the provincial capital of Desouk on Tuesday. It was attended by thousands, who considered her a local hero because of her athletic success.
Mourners urged police to find her killers and bring them to justice.
El Husseiny, a third-year pharmacy student at Kafr El Sheikh University, became the 2016 world club champion in the Egyptian invented racquet game of speedball when she led the junior team at Desouk Sporting Club to victory in Poland.
Other ways to buy used products in the UAE
UAE insurance firm Al Wathba National Insurance Company (AWNIC) last year launched an e-commerce website with a facility enabling users to buy car wrecks.
Bidders and potential buyers register on the online salvage car auction portal to view vehicles, review condition reports, or arrange physical surveys, and then start bidding for motors they plan to restore or harvest for parts.
Physical salvage car auctions are a common method for insurers around the world to move on heavily damaged vehicles, but AWNIC is one of the few UAE insurers to offer such services online.
For cars and less sizeable items such as bicycles and furniture, Dubizzle is arguably the best-known marketplace for pre-loved.
Founded in 2005, in recent years it has been joined by a plethora of Facebook community pages for shifting used goods, including Abu Dhabi Marketplace, Flea Market UAE and Arabian Ranches Souq Market while sites such as The Luxury Closet and Riot deal largely in second-hand fashion.
At the high-end of the pre-used spectrum, resellers such as Timepiece360.ae, WatchBox Middle East and Watches Market Dubai deal in authenticated second-hand luxury timepieces from brands such as Rolex, Hublot and Tag Heuer, with a warranty.
