Horror! Russian ‘Cannibal Couple’ May Have Eaten 30 People, Investigators Say

Police in southwestern Russia have arrested a ‘cannibal couple’ accused of sedating, skinning alive and eating parts of as many as 30 people, while preserving their remains in saline.

The Washington Post reports that the pair may have also tried to slip “canned human meat” into the food they prepared at their workplace — a military academy in the city of Krasnador, about five hours away from Sochi.

The investigation was reportedly triggered on Sept. 11 after road work crews discovered a stray cell phone and looked at its photo gallery.

They discovered to their horror, images of a man “with different parts of a dismembered human body in his mouth” and sent them to the authorities, the Post said citing a statement from Russia’s Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Police say the pair could be responsible for dozens of deaths or disappearances spanning almost two decades, according to the Post.

A police search of their home reportedly turned up one photograph dated Dec. 28, 1999, showing a human head on a plate with fruits. Investigators said that they also found jars containing human parts in saline solution.
