what does "who was eight years her junior" mean？
Islamic bomber Naida Asiyalova, 30, and Dmitry Sokolov, who was eight years her junior, were on Russia's most-wanted list - and he is now on the run while her remains lie in a body bag.
Any help will be appreciated!!!

It means the person is eight (8) years younger

"Eight years her junior" means "eight years younger than her". So Dmitry was 22.
Or, Dmitry was 22, and Naida was eight years his senior.
