The body of a 57-year-old woman
was found overnight in an apartment in the historic center of
Bressanone in northern Italy and her husband has confessed to
the murder.
Her body showed clear signs of stab wounds. Her husband was
arrested on Friday morning on suspicion of being behind the
woman's murder.
The man confessed to the murder.
The victim was named as Monika Gruber.
The murderer was named as Robert Kerer, 58.
He was found in a confused state near the local train station
last night, with police thinking he may have been thinking of
committing suicide, and a confession written in German was found
in the family home.
The woman was killed a few days ago, forensic sources said.
