September 28, 2017 by Staff News Writer

An American citizen could be related to the finding of a semi-buried body in a farm of the area.

The incident was reported since Tuesday, when agents of the Judicial Investigation Agency (OIJ) were alerted about the the presence of a corpse in the extensive property located in Pejibaye de Pérez Zeledón.

The foreigner, apparently named Williams, lives in the main house of the estate. The body was located 500 meters from that point.

Although preliminary it was indicated that the victim would be a domestic servant, the judicial police still maintains reservations on the possible identity.
