Dresden - A 71-year-old man in Germany lived for about a year with the decomposing body of his wife until neighbours reported the stench from their apartment to authorities, said police on Wednesday.
Officers alerted to the flat in this eastern city found the mummified body of the 75-year-old woman, who had apparently died of natural causes several months before, lying in the couple's bed.
Police said they had no reason to suspect foul play.
