Russian kills two women, wraps up dodies in carpets

Police in Russia’s Urals Perm region have detained a man who allegedly killed two women and then wrapped up their bodies in carpets, investigators said on Saturday.

In an alcohol-fuelled brawl, the 29-year-old man killed his first victim with a spanner and then strangled her to death.

He then choked the other woman to death and wrapped up the bodies in carpets, which he took to his car.

The bodies were found by police on a roadside on Friday. An investigation is ongoing.

The man, who has already served a prison term, faces life sentence.
