Power cut reveals body rotting in home

BELGRADE: Croatian police arrested a woman after finding the body of her sister, who disappeared 19 years ago, in a freezer at their family home, reports said yesterday.

A police spokesperson confirmed the gruesome discovery and the arrest of the 45-year-old suspect in Palovec, north of Zagreb.

The house where the body was found on Saturday belongs to the family of Jasmina Dominic, a 23-year-old student who disappeared in Zagreb in 2000.

Neighbours told media that electricity had been cut off from the house and that an odour of rotting followed.
