Shocking Moment 80-Year-Old Nun Was Seen Wheeling The Dead Body Of A Fellow Sister Into A Suitcase

In what will come across as a really shocking development, a nun in Chile has been caught on camera moving the dead body of a fellow sister crammed into a suitcase.

Footage shows the nun, 80, walking along a residential street as she struggles to pull the huge suitcase behind her. The woman, who has not been named, walked past a home where she was recorded on their security system

Local reports in Chile say that a horrified passerby later found the body of the second nun, aged 58, in the case on April 8 and called police.

The CCTV video emerged after police began a full-scale murder hunt over what they first believed was a drugs cartel killing in Santiago.

Investigators at first believed the body had been dumped by a gang. Only for authorities to look at CCTV in the area to discover that it had been abandoned by a nun.

It later emerged that the case had contained the corpse of a fellow 58-year-old nun who had apparently died of natural causes a year ago.

Her fellow sister told police that the pair had made a pact to take care of each other beyond death.

Officer Juan Fonseca said the dead nun had been kept in a case as an act of 'affection and loyalty'.

The situation only changed when the 80-year-old nun's daughter visited and decided the woman should be laid to rest, investigators concluded.

An autopsy showed no signs of deliberate killing, police said.

Local media reports that the 80-year-old nun was not arrested but could be charged with violations of the health code.

It later emerged that both women did not belong to a formal religious order but were 'consecrated laywomen' who lived a cloistered life in habits and robes.

A police investigation is ongoing.
