A man’s body was discovered with his legs bound with a trouser belt in an inaccessible part of the village of Pteleos in Magnesia, central Greece, on Saturday.
According to local reports, the corpse was in a state of advanced decay.
The fact that his legs were bound indicates that he was probably murdered and authorities suspect that the body belongs to 49-year-old Yannis Karabatsis, who disappeared on April 23.
Speaking to TheNewspaper.gr, the lawyer of the Karabatsis family requested a forensic examination and autopsy.
The request was accepted by the Prosecutor’s Office of Volos.
