In January of this year, a woman’s body was found on a snowy mountain in Gifu Prefecture. Police are investigating the possibility that a man and woman, who were indicted in a separate corpse abandonment case, were involved in this woman’s death.
“This is Ibigawa Town in Gifu Prefecture. Part of a skeletonized body was found in these mountains, away from public view.”
According to investigative sources, a skeletonized body was found on a snowy mountain in Ibigawa Town, Gifu Prefecture, in January of this year. Subsequent police investigation confirmed that the body was that of a woman in her 30s from Kani City, Gifu Prefecture, who had been missing since December of last year.
“‘Uncle, no good! There’s a human head, this is bad!’ ‘No way, that can’t be!’ (they shouted).”
The body was discovered by a hunting association that was culling deer. They spoke to an interview last week and described the situation at the time.
“A wounded deer happened to slip and fall down, we moved the snow aside, and the skull was there.”
The hunters found a deer in the mountains and shot at it. The shot deer slid down a snow-covered slope. It is said that when it did, a skull appeared from beneath the snow.
