Dortmund [Germany], October 15: The dismembered body of a 62-year-old man missing for nearly a year have been found in a freezer in western Germany, investigators said on Monday.
A molecular genetic examination was carried out for the purpose of precisely identifying the remains, which were discovered over the weekend in the town of Verl. "The freezer contained the complete body of the victim," investigators from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia said in the statement.
