A car that had been abandoned on waste ground in Cartagena on March 13^th and was later searched by the police contained the disfigured and almost unrecognisable body of a 76 year old man from Molina de Segura in Murcia who was found in the boot. Now seven months on a woman has been arrested with her two sons in connection with the death of her husband, who it is suspected was beaten to death.

Police now believe that they have solved the case after six months of intensive investigations during which time the identity of the victim has been kept secret. They now say he had married a local woman in Molina de Segura who had two sons from a previous marriage.

The relationship between the man and the step sons deteriorated, eventually leading, police believe, to the crime. The sons were brought in for questioning by National Police on Thursday this week, and police say that their statements are ‘fruitful’.
