A man’s body was discovered hanging from a guardrail on a highway near Trieste on Sunday. The victim was tied by the feet and blindfolded. According to initial findings, the man had multiple head injuries, burns and cuts, Italian media reported.
Some workers discovered the body by chance while doing maintenance work. The man was between 40 and 50 years old and had a rope wrapped around his neck. The deceased had marks of torture on his head, circular burns and injuries that were probably the result of severe beatings. The Trieste Public Prosecutor’s Office took over the investigation. (APA)
