Officers who visited the property to investigate her reported disappearance were greeted by her son, Alberto, who said: “Yes, my mother is inside.”
Spanish media claim he told the police how he had killed his mother and he had later practiced cannibalism with the remains.
Reports indicate that Alberto was not working or studying and his relationship with his mother had not been good for a long time. There are also claims that for the last two years he had got into the world of drugs consuming them on a daily basis.
