Khadija Bencheikh, the
46-year-old Moroccan woman killed and chopped up into a dozen
pieces in a field at Valeggio sul Mincio near Verona at the
weekend was killed by multiple blows to the head with a blunt
object, medical examiners said Wednesday.
Police said this made it more likely she was killed by
someone she knew.
Bencheikh lived in Verona and was separated from her Moroccan
husband, getting by on odd jobs, as a carer and cleaner.
The body was cut up with a chain saw.
Police tracked down her husband Tuesday but he is not a
suspect.
