Two cannibals have been feasting on the remains of their brother for the last six months in an effort to hide his murder, it was revealed today. The brothers, identified only as 28-year-old Timur and 23-year-old Marat admitted killing their older brother Rafis and then eating him, in the central Russian city of Perm.
Police grew suspicious when the brothers reported Rafis missing but were vague giving details of their brother, according to tabloid Tvoi Den. After raiding the house of the brothers police discovered the skeleton of Rafis that the brothers had stripped bare and buried in the garden.
Timur said he ate his brother because he couldn't face going back to prison, where he had served 10 years for murdering his next door neighbour. 'Yes, we've decided to eat him. I did not want to return behind the bars, so we have cut off his head and buried it and the body have cut in parts and kept in a refrigerator,' Timur reportedly said. 'We have been cooking and eating his meat for six months,' he added.
The 28-year-old said he blamed his brother Rafis for his last spell in jail, after he reported him to police for the murder. Timur also said youngest brother Marat had sided with him in the fight.
