Liga Skromane

Two suspects have been detained by the Kerala police for the alleged rape and murder of a Latvian tourist, whose decomposed body was found, with the head severed, 30 days after she went missing in March.

The body of a woman hanging upside down from a tree, with the head severed, has been found in Kerala's capital Thiruvananthapuram. Police suspect it could be that of a 33-year-old Latvian woman who went missing from the beach town of Kovalam last month.

42-year-old Andrew Jordan has been frantically searching for his wife Liga Skromane, 33, who went missing in Kerala's Kovalam last week. "We reached out to the police and were assured that they will get her in two days. It's been nine days now," said Andrew, who had arrived in Kerala last Saturday.
