Mummified corpse found in gruesome discovery after son 'dug mum up and kept her on sofa'

“It was established that the grave of Jadwiga L., where she was buried on January 16, 2010, remains empty.

“It is likely that the man dug up the mother’s body immediately after its burial and then mummified it and the body has remained in this house since 2010.”

Marian L is believed to have dug up the body himself before taking her back to his home, which is just 300m from the cemetery where she had been laid to rest, before using chemicals to preserve her body.

Despite having been buried more than 13 years ago, officials said her remains had been in “perfect condition”.
