COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Danish police said on Saturday divers had found the head and the legs of Swedish journalist Kim Wall, who died in mysterious circumstances on an inventor's homemade submarine.

 

Peter Madsen has been charged with killing the Swedish journalist who disappeared after she went on a trip with him in his submarine on August 10. He denies the charges.

 

Madsen, a Dane, was arrested after his submarine sank and he was rescued. His lawyer Betina Hald Engmark told Reuters that she had been informed of the development, but had not received any material or documentation and decline further comment.

 

Police identified a headless female torso that washed ashore in Copenhagen later in August as Wall's, but a cause of death has not been determined.

 

Madsen has said Wall died in an accident when she was hit by a heavy hatch cover on board his submarine.

 

On Saturday a police spokesman told reporters in Copenhagen that there were no fractures to Wall's skull.

 

The body parts, a knife and some of Wall's clothes in bags weighted down by bits of metal were found in Koge Bay on Friday by Danish navy divers who are assisting the police.

 

Police spokesman Jens Moller Jensen told reporters on Saturday that the body parts will be investigated further to try and determine a cause of death.

 

He said that the Madsen and his lawyers had not had time yet to react to the new evidence.

 

A police prosecutor said earlier this week that officers had found images "which we presume to be real" of women being strangled and decapitated on Peter Madsen's computer in a laboratory he ran.

 

Madsen said the computer searched by police was not his but was used by everyone in the laboratory. [nL8N1ME25G]

This submarine guy is some sort of weirdo ! He should never be allowed out on the streets again, and in order to save lots of money keeping the nutter behind bars I do believe the authorities would be making the right decision by helping him to slip in the shower :)

If convicted by judicial process, a suggested way to deal with this man is to feed him, feet first, into a tree shredder.

guy was a good thai

Why did this journalist get a burial at sea, as that is the kind of thing that Mafias have been doing for years to hide evidence. Highly suspicious that this Submarine owner felt he had to do that instead of bringing the journalist back to land so her family could have a funeral for her.

he cut her up to make it easier to get hour body out through the hatch.

When I read about this guy I can't help but think about the Swedish serial killer rapist, Martin Vanger, in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. OK, Madsen is Danish, but Denmark and Sweden are kinda linked in my head.
