Greek police have charged five people in the case of murdered UC Berkeley professor Przemyslaw Jeziorski, including his ex-wife and her current partner.

The ex-wife of a University of California, Berkeley professor who was fatally shot during a visit to Greece earlier this month is among five people who have been charged in his killing, reports say.

Greek officials say the broad-daylight attack came one day after a custody hearing over the victim's 10-year-old twins.
