The police arrested a couple in Cantabria after discovering the woman's father's corpse inside their home, apparently deceased for quite some time. The body was found by the authorities during an investigation.
The marriage formed by a man and a woman is now in police custody as suspects for having concealed the woman's father's body for a prolonged period of time.
The authorities are investigating the motive for the crime, considering as the main hypothesis the economic issues, specifically the intention to collect the deceased's pension. However, the possibility of mental illness as an explanatory factor is also being pointed out.
