German couple tortured two women to death, police say




Police in Germany investigating the deaths of two women say they were the victims of a couple who held them hostage and tortured them.

They say a man and his ex-wife placed dating advertisements to lure the women to their home.

The suspects - Wilfried W, 46, and Angelika B, 47 - were arrested last Wednesday and charged with manslaughter.

The man denies any wrongdoing but his partner is reported to have confessed.

Detectives believe there may be further victims and are searching the couple's home in Hoexter, north-western Germany.
'Worst physical torture'

Police have for weeks been investigating the death of a 41-year-old woman, known as Susanne F, who they believe was held hostage and tortured in the couple's residence.

She eventually died in hospital last month, after the couple allegedly tried to take her back to her own home.

At a news conference on Tuesday, police said they now believed the couple had killed and dismembered another young woman before disposing of her remains in their fireplace.

Annika W, 33, also from Lower Saxony, died in August 2014 after what investigators called "the worst physical torture".

Like Suzanne F, she had responded to a dating advertisement in late 2013.

In both cases, the victims are said to have been tied up, beaten, and trodden on.

Police believe the motive for the murders was more likely to be power-related than sexual.

Angelika B is reported to have made a full confession, arguing that she only obeyed the man after also being tortured by him. Further investigations are said to support her statement.

There are indications that there may be women who survived meeting the couple, according to German news agency DPA.

The full names of those involved in the case have not been released inline with German privacy laws.





Officers say they cannot rule out the possibility of finding further victims
