ZAGREB - An Austrian man has been charged with trying to smuggle a corpse after Croatian police stopped him with a dead woman sitting next to him in his car.
Officers became suspicious of why his passenger "was not communicating" when he handed them their IDs.
The man later admitted that the 83-year-old woman, of whom he was legal guardian, had died in Bosnia, but that he didn't want to go through the tiresome formalities of repatriating her corpse.
