This woman has has been accused of hiding two dead babies in her freezer for years after a shocking discovery in Germany this week.

According to Metro UK, the frozen bodies were found in a home in the German town of Benndorf, Saxony-Anhalt.

The ex-boyfriend of the 46-year-old woman, who can be only identified as Steffi S due to German media laws, tipped off the police about the gruesome contents of her freezer.

The ex, Uwe W, phoned the police and said: ‘At my ex-girlfriend’s house lies a dead infant.’

 

When police raided the house they found two frozen corpses in the freezer.

Police spokesman Ralf Karlstedt said: ‘We assume that the occupant of the house is the mother. We cannot rule out a crime. Post-mortems on the two bodies will be carried out.’

Steffi S, who lives with her 15-year-old daughter Selina in the house, was taken into investigative custody after the gruesome find but later released.

Chief prosecutor Heike Geyer added: ‘So far, there is an initial suspicion of a crime, but we still do not know whether there actually was a crime. That does not justify investigative custody.’

The shocking find left neighbours in disbelief.

A friend of Steffi S said: ‘It is unbelievable. Steffi has been my best friend for five years. I cannot believe it.’
